I took a break from social media, including Farcaster, for the past few months — no apps on my phone, logged out on desktop, muted group chats, and barely posted. Some observations:
The good: I felt more focused and got more done. My mind was quieter, and I was more present with family, friends, and nature.
The bad: I felt more alone. My thoughts were siloed and unsharpened, and I felt like I was learning slower. I missed my internet people and learning in public.
I think the system that works well for me is using social media only on my desktop when working to learn faster and be helpful, and keeping social apps off my phone to be more present in person.
It's good to be back! 29 replies
