A friend inherited off-grid property. I was already into the idea of homesteading and survivalism and had been building those skills sets for years. What started as a little bit of helping on the weekends turned into full time living. I didn’t think I could do it and it was hard.
But now I know what I’m capable of and how much nicer life is when you live it. I’ve been back in regular society for a few years and my phone is still on ‘do not disturb’ mode all the time.
Yeah i have notifications silenced as they are a stupid distraction.
I have a tablet for work that I rarely use so I leave it for the kids to play on. Everytime i look at it there is hundreds of notifications from games they play. How are the kids meant to get anything done if they keep getting interrupted.
Why did you disconnect? Because of location or work or what?

‘do not disturb’ mode is a must. my brain can’t focus on any single activity if i constantly expect to be interrupted while doing it.
