Conquer against screen time

Social media has invaded us all. It is no longer only the young who scroll on tiktok, now you can scroll on facebook, instagram, snapchat and youtube too. Most people feel they spend more time on their phone than they want to, and many feel they have an addiction.

Overuse of social media has big consequences, such as lowering the brain's sensitivity to natural stimuli like talking with friends, being with your family and children and doing things you enjoy, like a hobby.

The companies like Meta and Google that make these apps are fully aware of these effects, but choose to keep going in the same direction. They make the apps more addictive, more stimulating, because then they earn more money from you watching more ads in the app.

We at Conquer want to solve the problem, and believe we have found something that can help. Time in nature can clear your head, reduce stress and give lasting joy. And not least, it gives you something else to do than scroll. You can't just stop doing something you spend several hours on every day without replacing it with something, then you get a void that makes it very easy to fall back into old habits.

So we believe that hiking regularly can be a good influence in general, and reduce screen time among both young people and adults. Conquer makes hiking even more fun than usual, and of course much easier to find places, parking and the trail up. We believe we can help many people, and have a positive effect on the world.

Those who feel the same way we do, we hope will join the fight, create an effect in society by spreading information, bringing attention to the problem, and most importantly: spreading solutions to the problem that people can use.
