What do you all do on your phones that isn't doom-scrolling or mindless mini games? - Beehaw

I find myself checking out pretty often and just making myself feel bad about the state of the world, or killing half an hour on stupid games that I could 100% live without. This is probably pretty common, and I’m wondering what other people have found as a way to do more productive things with their phones in the downtime.

A couple I’m doing or have done in the past:

  • Watch news or vlogs on YT in my target language I’m trying to learn. Or even gamified language apps are better than nothing, like Lingvano for ASL.
  • Codecademy or PythonPad for quick programming lessons.
  • An ereader like Yomu, loaded with a type of book that’s easy to start and stop quickly.
