A couple weeks ago, I decided to deactivate Instagram because I found myself wasting too much time watching short-form videos (a.k.a. Reels) everyday. I never open Instagram with the intention of watching those videos, but I always find myself scrolling through them mindlessly. It’s like a digital black hole where time melts away before I know it’s too late. These little bits of time add up and amount to a couple of hours every week.
