reading the post, if you have the discipline, start with something like sewing or football? And if we are not talking adrenaline, then books for the other S word. But point would be for "I want to wake, live the whole day in the moment", you'll have to fall too hard; almost in love with it.

Can someone explain who this person is and why this is relevant? People crash out all the time; you can seek balance without "cold turkey", unless they find no value in the web at all, in which case why bother to post about it? Who is the audience of this website, if this is their last post?

The internet it shit now which is why I’m in full support of all the deanonymizing legislation that a lot of countries are trying to pass. It was a good time while it lasted. We didn’t think it would end up this way but it did. More information did not make the world better, instead people decided to create their own fake, bullshit realities instead.

I require the internet in order to stay educated about my government, without it I would have a limited understanding of how my taxes are used. As much as I would like to "turn it off", I can only get the New York Times 4 days after it comes out.

I want to log off too but mostly because AI slop and bots are taking over. Old Internet was trash but at least it was human trash.

This being the top post of an (extremely) online forum is… interesting.
