I have that too, but there's also a button that pauses it for 30 min in the notifications and I am too weak.
Ive thrown my phone as hard as I could at the ground during a mental health crisis and it actually worked pretty well for getting off of the doomscroll train. Then I got a new phone and now I'm back in the trenches
Disable that notification!
What book?
Second Foundation is in arms reach on the table beside me rn
That's why I'm still loving the Minimal Phone. E-paper display is terrible for doom scrolling (though you 100% can if you want) but great for reading and doing phone/organizer stuff.
I'll doom scroll on my laptop, TYVM lol.
