The first book I chose to read this year is Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport, hopefully by the time I finish the book I will be able to reduce my screen time. My first step was blocking reddit and 4chan and uninstalling all games on my machine.
tl;dr: Phone sales plummeted 18 percent last quarter, 11 percent for the entire year. In the top five for Q4 2022—in order, they were Apple, Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo, and Vivo—Apple was, of course, the least affected, but not by much. Apple saw a year-over-year drop of 14.9 percent for Q4 2022, Samsung was down 15.6 percent, and the big loser, Xiaomi, dropped 26.5 percent. For the year, Samsung still took the No. 1 spot with 21.6 percent market share, Apple was No. 2 with 18.8 percent, and Xiaomi took third place at 12.7 percent.
I think you need to start focusing more on marketing. Look for paid ads on a popular site. Maybe add some sort of rewards badges or something like that for people who reached (100, 1000, 10000, …) Karma, name them something cool since you are into roman history name them after roman legion hierarchy. Or maybe hire a freelancer marketer.
“I’m proud of her and what the club represents,” he said. “But there’s also the parent part of it, and we don’t know where our kid is. You follow your kids now. You track them. It’s a little Orwellian, I guess, but we’re the helicopter parent generation. So when she got rid of the iPhone, that presented a problem for us, initially.”
He’d heard about the Luddite Club’s hand-wringing over questions of privilege.
“Well, it’s classist to make people need to have smartphones, too, right?” Mr. Lane said. “I think it’s a great conversation they’re having. There’s no right answer.”
A couple days later, as the Sunday meeting of the Luddite Club was coming to an end in Prospect Park, a few of the teens put away their sketchbooks and dog-eared paperbacks while others stomped out a tiny fire they had lit. It was the 17th birthday of Clementine Karlin-Pustilnik and, to celebrate, the club wanted to take her for dinner at a Thai restaurant on Fort Hamilton Parkway.
Night was falling on the park as the teens walked in the cold and traded high school gossip. But a note of tension seemed to form in the air when the topic of college admissions came up. The club members exchanged updates about the schools they had applied to across the country. Odille reported getting into the State University of New York at Purchase.
“You could totally start a Luddite Club there, I bet,” said Elena Scherer, a Murrow senior.
Taking a shortcut, they headed down a lonely path that had no park lamps. Their talk livened when they discussed the poetry of Lewis Carroll, the piano compositions of Ravel and the evils of TikTok. Elena pointed at the night sky.
“Look,” she said. “That’s a waxing gibbous. That means it’s going to get bigger.”
As they marched through the dark, the only light glowing on their faces was that of the moon.
Yeah, I'm dual booting and the only time I use windows is when I need to use Adobe products

This is normal, especially for sandbox games like RimWorld.
>Am I being autistic by not moving over to a different game?
Nah, unless you aren't enjoying the game, and doing this for the sake of completion.
It has the potential to replace reddit and 4chan, just needs more marketing.
Merry Christmas, Cicero!
Better use an offline PWM like keePass and KeePassXC
