Screens are designed to hold attention. More accurately, I’d have to say what’s shown on screens is engineered to hold attention. It doesn’t seem to matter if it’s a TV or phone.

But overall, I’ve managed to control physical interruptions much better than screen/internet based ones.

Now it’s trying to replace the library with Kindle Unlimited.
