    Spending too much time with games or internet either implies serious problems the person is trying to escape from, or a lack of alternative activities. Trying to force the people to stop won’t do anything, the goal should be to make it so people don’t feel the need to rely on these two as much.

      If someone is bored they will just move to the next most dopaminergic activity, I would know I stopped playing all games one year at university and all I managed to do is read a bunch of books namely 2000 chapter Chinese xianxia novels. Me deciding to purely grind schoolwork was the thing that actually had any impact.
