Digital Minimalism Practices

• Replacing usage with High Quality Leisure

Use desktop versions over mobile

• Could actually do this

Scheduling conversation time

• Schedule specific times for texting, almost like a feed
  • Be grounded in your time limits and don’t feel guilty
    • Text conversations don’t have to be continuous conversations, they aren’t under the same circumstances as in-person communication

Skip the addiction-prone steps

• Going on youtube recommended, set up bookmarks instead

Leave your phone at home

Embrace the solitude walking entails, and go on them often

• Engage in complete solitude; no music, no phone checking, etc

Use social media professionally

• Not as entertainment (no memes), just interests
• Short amount of followed to not have much to catch up on
• Doesn’t use stories
• Only use social apps for close people
  • A person can only keep track of roughly 150 people in their social circle
• She finds twitter to be most useful for bits of information and professionalism?
  • Recent news, ideas, networking
  • Different accounts depending on purpose

Embrace slow media

• We tend to develop autopilot routines for checking all our social media
• Focus on quality over quantity of sources and information, as well as controlling the time we spend
  • Focus on established figures rather than the most recent twitter posts
    • ex) Metrotown threat, focus on news rather than twitter

Dumb down your phone

• Not really applicable to me as I think my phone usage is under control

Block websites

• Freedom
• Treat blocked services as permanent or controlled using time schedules, not just during work sessions
