Thanks for this, it resonates with me a lot. I've talked about this more than once in my podcast.
One thing I’ve noticed when people try to declutter their digital lives is that they often try to do everything at once (inbox, files, photos, apps, passwords) and it becomes overwhelming quickly. The approach that seems to stick is starting small and building a habit. Digital clutter builds slowly, so the cleanup process usually has to work the same way. I usually suggest they look at it in five minute increments or a 30 minute cleanup. It does wonders to break it down.
Love the simplified home screen, will try that on my iphone! I started using an NFC Tag to block Social Media at the end of January, and now I unblock it once in a while. Guess what? I don’t miss a single notification, the doom scrolling.
i’ve also been making the switch to a less cluttered and busy environment, including my digital space! i’ve been putting off decluttering my laptop for agesss but maybe now is the time to do it hahaha

At least twice a year I declutter my digital life- and is high reward feeling. So happy to read your article :)
