I didn’t feel the need to abandon them because I don’t mindlessly scroll them. Well, I guess I did for reddit but I stopped that easily enough by substituting for Lemmy. And since Lemmy is kinda barren right now besides the front page I’ve cut way down on phone time. I still use Twitter when I try to get news on something, I use reddit to get random people’s thoughts on a purchase, don’t use Facebook or Instagram at all. Snapchat I just use for a single groupchat.

Cutting down on screen time is never a bad thing to do. I’ve benefited from this as well.
