In a surprising twist, a basic mobile phone- capable of only making calls, sending texts, and featuring a subpar camera-sold out in just two days, with the majority of buyers being young people. The reason? They're seeking to reduce their dependence on digital devices and embrace what's being called "digital minimalism."
In today's hyper-connected world, many suffer from "screen addiction", where every spare moment is filled with scrolling, checking, and rechecking phones. Anxiety over a dead battery has also become too common.
Thus, some have turned to creative solutions like purchasing "dumb phones" or joining "screen-free" groups. However, these methods vary in effect, as some return to smartphones due to limited functionality.
In fact, "digital minimalism" doesn't mean ditching your smartphones altogether. Instead, it's about finding balance- reducing information overload and regaining control over your time.
What are your thoughts on "digital minimalism"? Welcome to share in the comments.
