Elsewhere, studies into the horrors of tech use rarely distinguish between the techs they monitor, when of course each kind is vastly different; how should we compare the experience of talking in a group chat on WhatsApp to using a period tracker, or learning Polish on Duolingo to putting a cute little baby effect on an Instagram selfie?Many of the studies say spending too long on your phone might lead to depression, anxiety and sleeplessness. But it is almost impossible to say for sure which way that river flows.
