I only use nostr on desktop. Stopped using twitter. Haven't used other social media in decade. Not having distractions on mobile does wonders for focus. May continue this trend.

This is seriously the way and I may follow suit. Way too much distraction being connected all the time especially with my phone. Nostr has seriously rejuvenated my excitement with social media with all the work being done and the quick advancements but I'm also realizing I'm spending more and more time in front of a screen rather than in real life. A life/technology balance check is in order for myself.

I agree. I don't use social media on my mobile. I'll admit I put a NOSTR client on my phone for the rare instance when I want to post a photo, I took with my phone, to NOSTR. It saves me time over having to email it to myself, download, and then upload. I don't check NOSTR on my phone ever. Maybe sometime when I'm on vacation I might check it, but that may never happen. It hasn't at this point.

Which client do you recommend? I tried a few on Windows but none as good as #Damus on iOS

I joined Twitter in March to support EM and his apparent free speech efforts. Three months later I deleted my account after he hired a Cabal WEF puppet. No TV + no anti-social media = MATRIX extraction.

Not having an ad every 3rd post is a much better experience. Posts aren’t filled with hatred. Not having an algorithm selecting what you see helps greatly.

Quitting Twitter will be very hard for me … not sure I’m ready
This is the way. All of a sudden you have soooo much more time on your hand eh? Not having social media on your phone also makes you realise how lost other people are. starring at their phone all day even when seated on a terrace with friend for a coffee. terrible...
Odell the voice of reason. Only things mobile devices are good for are imo are short form comms like signal and simpleX, taking photos, listening to RHR and getting directions in the car. CalyxOS got me covered on all these counts. As a result, my device is usually in my bag as I don't get my stare on at all these days. That's pretty much freedom tech right?
