Why isn't this being shouted from the rooftops? The future is here, it's just not evenly distributed. -
🔗 Living Like It's 99: No Social Media, No Smartphone
At the time of writing this article, I’ve been living without social media for 3 years and without a smartphone for 2 years. Everything started as an experiment motivated by my privacy concerns.
