NJ2 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 See I would sometimes just film a bit of a concert or sporting event (probably totaling to less than a minute) just for me to watch back later really. I can't understand the people who film essentially the whole thing and putting the full concert on a ridiculously long snapchat story.I agree with this, grab a quick photo or video as a reminder then back to enjoying it. I get similarly annoyed by folk recording the whole even on their phones as artists banning folk taking any videos or photos at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Nah I can't see the appeal of filming even a wee bit of a gig or a sporting event. It will be shit quality and shit sound and won't equate to your actual experience when you were there. Plus loads of other folk will have done it, so you can just search Youtube for a pishy wee video clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your photo or video is a reminder personal to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recommend learning how to sign “I’m sorry I’m deaf”, so that when ignoring them isn’t working you have a get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectre Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Isn't this more of an issue of social networks and other sites attempting to grasp our attention for as long as possible. This is how these websites generate revenue afterall through billions of views and clicks every day. objectively, scrolling through my facebook feed seems pointless, yet, I still do it all the time even if I am aware that large portion of it is uninteresting crap. Who among us has come back onto Pie and Bovril after 5 minutes to see if anyone has said anything new - I know I have (and no one has said anything new, because it's only been 5 minutes). It's very likely that most of us do spend too much time on our phones. but the smart phones are not the issue and removing such a useful device from our lives would be a bad thing. What we should be doing is limiting the time we spend on facebook, instagram, snapchat, youtube, reddit, whatever other apps and website we waste our time on seeing the same things over and over again.

Ira Gaines Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Nothing with wrong with using phones to take a picture and maybe a video or two, but I don't see the point in filming large chunks of it instead of just putting the phone away and enjoying yourself.

Dindeleux Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 iPhone now so a screen time review and my figures are pretty shocking.I think this is the time your phone is actually unlocked and being used as well so it’s not as if it’s just due to apps being open. Think how much of life I am missing.Will try to tone it down this week and post the next 7 days next Sunday to see how I’ve got on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
