After an early start this morning I am happy to be at home after being in town. Dinner at mum’s was nice along with getting her technology up to date although I have kept her iPhone on 18.7.1 until I am confident that macOS 26.x changes aren’t going to disrupt what she is currently used to. At the rate things are going I might end up waiting for 26.2 or maybe even 26.3 given that Apple’s platforms have had quite a substantial change so I’d sooner wait to see what it’ll eventual look like after most of the rough edges are sorted and the UI glass interface is toned down to something that only a small number of people are complaining about. I’ll probably make a more exhaustive post later on after watching some television shows.

How do you manage screen time for yourself?

When I use technology I ensure that I have objective(s) I want to achieve when using it rather than just aimlessly doom scrolling – that goes for updating my blog, checking out key YouTube videos regarding news and documentaries etc. By having clear expectations of what I want to achieve it means that any screen time I do have is being used productively. It is one of the reasons why the most commonly used app on my phone is PowerAmp because outside of reading news I get board of social media unless it is informing me of something I need to know about – linking to an interesting article covering subject matter that I am interested in.
