By 'computers' I think you mean an 'Internet Connected' one? Because the Internet is designed to be adverse by its very nature IMHO. This is where heavy curation is needed and you should only pay attention to what interests you, not be lead down a spiral path by some recommendation algo or news aggregation site (looking at you HN). Yes, I know, this is a form of cognitive bias, but there's nothing inherently wrong with that. That can go wrong if you become tunnel vision on a subject to the detriment of other subjects though. It's about balance.

No it's not about the internet for me, just the work aspects of sitting in front of a computer. But i will admit that all the remote work and studies did NOT help at all. I pretty sure that being starved of almost all (real) social interactions during that period contributed to this situation.
