Yes I am kind of joking. The problem is, we have seen over time, books aren’t evil or bad (sounds like religious nutjubbery to me there) however we have found how bad these devices are because they are constantly dinging and giving you dopamine highs. Tell me this; will a toddler be more likely addicted to a book, or a shiny flashy iPad (that can later be leveraged by corporations into an addiction to fortnight crates/loot box shit). So in that way, yes, the screens are bad. Now I use my phone often times for reading, but you know what 99% of the population is using it for ? Mindless 6 second tik tok brainrot. Its definitely not a good thing.
Yeah, like I said, it’s the content that’s bad. You could have a phone without any of these issues. Mine mostly doesn’t, because I don’t use any of these media services or social media, besides Lemmy if you count that.
