Remove apps that profit off of addiction, distraction, outrage, polarization, and misinformation.
While we can’t solve tech with more tech, there are some tools out there that can help. Here’s our short list (see our longer list at the bottom of this page).
We vote with our clicks. Don't support sites that pollute our cultural environment with vitriol via clickbait and outrage.
Social media serves us content we already agree with to keep us online longer, eroding our ability to engage with people who don’t share our views. To solve problems from poverty to racism to climate change, we have to come together and expose ourselves to different perspectives.
Social media profits off hate and anger because it generates more engagement. Let’s fight back with compassion.
We use our phones and news feeds from the moment we wake up, to falling asleep, and even in the bathroom.
Disconnecting can be a powerful way to reconnect with yourself and your loved ones. It’s not only good for you — collectively we can reduce time spent on social media platforms by 15%, impacting bottom lines.
If you receive 99 positive comments on a post and 1 negative comment, which do you focus on? Our survival-biased brains tend to focus on the negative, even after we turn away from our tech.
Don’t force your local newspaper to play social media’s clickbait game. Support your local newspaper directly by paying for a subscription so that we can remain the customer, not the product. Democracy doesn’t work without healthy journalism.
