I don't get the animosity towards the modern phone. It's basically a huge library in a small portable form. How is it intrinsically better to spend hours reading at a library vs while sitting elsewhere like at home or while drinking coffee at the diner, or did people also have a weird hatred for spending hours reading in a library, just like with anything else honestly like why is having a map on a phone bad but a map in paper form good, etc
It's not having a map on a phone that's a threat, it's more that the social media apps have been specifically designed to create severe dopamine addiction pathways in the brain and destroy attention spans. And the 24/7 surveillance. I'm no expert though, I've never had one.

Well I guess that's why I don't get it then, I don't use social media, I just don't see the appeal
