When do you first check your social media in the day?
For me, I start my social media as soon as I wake up. Sometimes, I check it before going to bed. I try to stay active on social media, but sometimes this habit can be exhausting. Then, I feel the need to take a digital break. Do you also have the habit of constantly checking social media?

I try to ban social media more and more before work and in the evenings too. We spend too many hours before screens. I try to put the flight mode on as early as possible and start the first hour of the day with flight mode.
@marvin_maendle This is what I'm trying to do too. But if you're on flight mode, what do you do in the first hour? And how do you resist the urge/stress not to unflight mode your phone
@xavier_jj First of all I drink water. Then I go for a walk or drink a coffee at my terrace (depends on the weather). Breakfast, bit housekeeping and bathroom. Then I switch off the flight mode. Sometimes it triggers me but in the end I see the advantages for mental health and my own thoughts instead of trash reels. I enjoy the silence.
My instinct is to check first thing in the morning. But some days when I have a lot of coding work I try and push it to noon or evening :)
I delete my SM in weekends and install in weekday. So I don't want to waste my weekend I delete it and in week day I don't have time to check SM. Only LinkedIn and product hunt do check regularly I don't have FB app only Instagram.
@priyanka27 I mean I don't follow it very good way. But I try use less SM on weekends and use it for take rest or learn new things.
It's a great way to stay connected and entertained, but it is also importance to recognize the balance between screen time and other activities.
