One unpopular opinion I hold is that technology detoxes, or prolonged periods without digital devices, are not universally beneficial. Many advocate for completely unplugging as a method to reduce stress and increase mindfulness. However, I believe that technology should be seamlessly integrated into our lives, not periodically abandoned. Technology can enhance productivity, foster connections, and provide endless learning opportunities. Instead of complete abstinence, I argue for finding a healthy balance where technology serves to enhance rather than detract from our lives. By setting boundaries for digital consumption and using tech tools intentionally, we can achieve mindfulness and presence without abandoning the benefits our digital devices provide.
What’s an unpopular opinion you firmly stand by, even if others do not agree?
