I wouldn't want to go back, because having instant access to anything is pretty amazing, but I do miss those days of offline internet.

Fully agree. I recently replaced my doomscrolling with a retro handheld and it really makes me happy. It also pushed me to pick up my ereader again.

I spend enough time at a computer than I shouldn't really need a smartphone outside of 'I need to message ___' or 'I need to go ___'
