I am expressly indifferent. If I couldn't busy myself online I'd surely find other equally engaging ways of doing so.

Like others wrote about already, I try to curate my online experiences carefully. I'm strictly anti-algo, and while I have X, I only use it to stay current with those I follow, seldom engage on nostr, and try to participate meaningfully to online forums/blogs like SN.

This practice has made me to become more aware of the output in mental bandwidth required of digital activities (similar to reading a book, solving the daily sodoku puzzle, or chatting with colleagues at lunch, engaging meaningfully requires thought and considerstion. Unmeaningful uses, like doomscrolling, also sap our energy, but these do so in a more vampyric manner). Since I don't usually forego the real life things, being a mindful user results in a net overall increase in energy output, which is good on some days, and less on others.

My SN persona wants to popularize the idea that mainstream education is simply a well-curated information delivery system, and that one can be very well cultured and educated through carefully curated content, without having the traditional schooling experience. I haven't quite figured out the right means of doing so, yet....
