I wish you the best in the Offline

Several notable figures have recently quit social media, AI usage, or the internet entirely—including DevRel professional Salma (who retired completely), Chad Whitacre (who announced his exit via typewriter to make zines about religion), and Brett Codes (who stopped using AI and video). While the author celebrates their departures and wishes them well, there's an inherent irony: without their online presence, we'll never hear about whether these unconventional life choices actually improved their wellbeing or circumstances.
