I’ve been on Reddit for over a decade. But I’m done with that site and want to do something else. What do normal people look at on their phones? Is it all social media? Streaming?
Lots of people are on TikTok and Instagram.
I on the other hand stare at the nearest wall.
I get the busy train to work every day and can confirm this statement. Everyone on Thier phones is either scrolling an app with pics/vids or messaging someone.
The few left look at a wall, no other category
Pleased to meet you, fellow wallwatcher.

I’m one of those psychos who flash custom roms just because I can, so that is a big time consuming activity I have with my phone, other than that I usually use Sync for Lemmy, Sync for Reddit, Pocket Casts, Spotify, Feeder/Feedly and Firefox Beta, among other apps.

I can.t find a goood rss feed for it :(
I just use harmonic app… I’m sure that’s not the coolest most hackery way to access it, but I’m too busy working on my sawmill to piss around…
I am the wrong person to ask about this, but I read ebooks, play games, go on fora.
My wife cruises Facebook marketplace and other similar sites and buys furniture which she then resells at a profit. But I doubt that’s very common either.
Why do you have to replace it?
Maybe use it as a way to cut down on screen time.
I have no socials on my phone. I mainly use it to listen to audiobooks/podcasts instead.

And this is why you’re not allowed to pick up the kids from school anymore.
We don’t look at porn when kids are about.
I do look at cat pics and cute animals and will show those around, even to kids. My ten year old grandson doesn’t care. He Robloxes.
How the hell would any of us know?
Some of us have millennial and zoomer kids.

I look at lemmy or mastodon but I am very much less than normal.
Transitioned to Lemmy and manga reading during lunchbreak.
During commut it’s podcast.Dude, he asked about normal people. Not us!

I do a lot of podcasts and play pokemon on my phone. Emulators are amazing
I feel like any time anyone is using their phones in public they’re scrolling Instagram.
If you want to give an appearance of normalcy while maintaining a living soul, just get a Pixelfed account, follow a bunch of photographers, and scroll endlessly.
I like to look at different cooking techniques and recipes. You have to eat everyday, why not make it fun and delicious!
Normal people? Probably mostly Facebook, Instagram and candy crush. You can just take a look at the top free apps in your app store but I’ll give you a spoiler: it’s 99% junk.
Okay so I actually checked. The top 3 are Temu (a ripoff shopping app), WhatsApp and Tiktok in my region
