I’m all for reducing your phone usage and “living in the moment” but taking photos is actually something I try to do more recently, not less. Obviously, I’m not watching events through the phone screen while filming them, but if something worth remembering happens I will quickly snap a picture first (double press the power button, single press the volume button, done), and then put the phone away and enjoy it.

I realized that going through old photos actually brings me a lot of joy and often reminds me of moments I had completely forgotten. And mind you, I’m only approaching 30, I can only imagine this will be even more important when I’m older.

So yeah, I disagree with this one, but of course I realize this will be different for different people.
