It did not take a toll on my life as I saw clearly the damage it could do to being alive, enjoying peace, manipulating the contents of people's minds, being present and undisturbed. If you want to evaporate your existence on a total waste of time do so.Wrong on a lot of counts.Maybe it is because mobile phones are terrible things for human beings overall, making your life measurably worse. Social media, available on apps, phone and SMS every hour sent including rest time, endless distracting streams of total rubbish to plough through as "entertainment"
And creating a single point of extreme stress if you lose it. This and a single pointed security risk for every individual, (banking/payment forms/I.D./ Health admin / exact GPS and phone tower mast access to precisely where you have been 24 hours a day, filled to the brim with private personal identifiable data etc.) Coupled with a risk of a fragile society where little of actual importance (banking) can be done should networks go down.
Trying to use them to make music on the go is also not worth bothering with.
Who wants to run a complex music session on a tiny phone with beeps and rings interrupting ? Who chooses a tiny screen to work on in 2024 for music. No one.
Also, making music on a phone can be fun.
Sorry that technology has taken such a direct toll on your life.
Yes, you can easily make full tracks on a phone. Yes, you can even master and release a whole album from your phone. You can use it for MIDI generation. Or as a multi-track recorder. An external synth or effects rack. Or as a full DAW workstation.
Part of the reason for the lower popularity is displayed in this thread: bias against.
Imbeciles can mix and master their tracks on a phone, so yes it is true, I'll give you that.
