Quinty removes all apps and switches to flip phone: 'Was fed up'
Quinty van Koert from De Lier deleted her social media apps and switched to a pink Barbie flip phone after experiencing overstimulation and restlessness from excessive smartphone use. The 29-year-old content creator, known for her TikTok presence and YouTube series Camping Mello, found that removing digital distractions brought relief. Psychologist Lennard Toma describes her decision as courageous, noting that social media addiction is common among those spending seven to eight hours daily on devices, and Quinty now inspires others through her blog The Offline Corner to live more and scroll less.
