如果不用智能手机会怎样?
很多人现在已经不能想象没有智能手机的生活了。
不管是社交、游戏,还是工作,我们的生活与智能手机几乎已经密不可分。
但是我们也被智能手机占据了大部分的时间,没有手机好像就不会生活了。
小李是生活在上海的一个年轻人,他已经一年多没有使用过智能手机了。
他曾经有每一代新款苹果手机,但是他现在用的手机只能发短信和打电话。
小李平时会用短信和电话与亲戚朋友保持联系,用电脑完成必要的工作。
当然,在数字化程度很高的中国,这样的生活肯定会遇到一些不方便。
比如,一些商店不能刷信用卡和银行卡,也没有足够的零钱,不能使用手机进行移动支付的人就需要花更多的时间和商店进行沟通。
但正常情况下,这些问题都能解决。
这样的生活带给了小李什么呢?
在停止使用智能手机以后,小李学会了享受无聊,做一些以前觉得无聊的事。
比如他学会了使用打字机,用很老的胶片相机记录生活,每天晚上定时给窗外的鸟喂食,他开始关注身边的人,甚至注意到每个城市的广告都有不同的风格。
没有智能手机的日子,他和真实世界的距离更近了。
现在越来越多的年轻人开始加入这种反技术依赖的尝试,他们扔掉智能手机、减少屏幕使用时间、删除社交软件,让生活去智能化,变成数字极简主义者。
你想尝试一下这样的生活吗?
