Ask HN: What is the most Neo-Luddite thing you have done this year?

1 pointsby c1sc0almost 7 years ago
Seems like there is a big undercurrent of technoskepticism in society today. Even technologists are scaling back their use of social media etc, ... what is the most Neo-Luddite / anti-tech thing you have done this year?

For me it’s pretty small: deleted all social apps from my phone. But I’ve been thinking about making bigger changes to live a more minimalist lifestyle. Looking for inspiration/ ideas / discussion.

Ditched all social media a few years ago - still not looking back.<p>It has its downsides but I like the fact that my life is ad&#x2F;spam-free.

Stopped using a percolator. It takes much longer to make coffee, but I look forward to the ritual and the idle-brain time.

Put my phone in a drawer on Sunday mornings and take it back out Monday morning.
