People who reduced IG/Smartphone usage, how did you do it?

It’s clear to me that this isn’t good for me. My interaction with the outside world and being in the present is inversely proportional to how much I use IG/smartphone.

IG is obv the strongest drug, but in general want to be more conscious about what I do on my phone, when Inuse it.

Looking for genuine advice. Please help 🙏🏻

If required, login from web only

I've set timers for 19 apps in my phone by digital wellbeing 🤷 It'll help in long run

Travel more, meet random people, go to gym, read books and keep yourself busy as much as possible.

I uninstalled IG and FB 2 years back and I have been happy as ever. I was going through something and as a result I uninstalled it but it's the best decision ever. I adopted a pet, I spend time with my friends, I go to the gym, I try to work on something productive every other week, I try to eat healthy. Now when I see the weekly mobile usage report and if this week says that I used my mobile less than last week I get so happy. Work on yourself rather than seeing fake people working on themselves by exhibiting fake images and products.
