Gen Alpha is poised to be the most online generation, with AI and other inevitable advancements in technology and social media. I loved the phone, but using it for a week also made me realize how complicated excessive social media use is to solve. AdvertisementIt all reminded me of a conversation I had earlier this year with an ex-digital brand strategist about reducing social media use. I'd see memes from friends who forgot to text my Gabb phone and would get sucked right back into social media. Plus, the only reason I have social media boundaries at all is because I grew up being encouraged to have hobbies.
