honestly a few years ago I didn't agree with it, but now things are enshittifying so much that it really seems to be the better option now. it'll unfortunately bar even those from using their phones who would use it for other things than mindless scrolling, using ai chatbots and playing microtransaction and ad filled games, but for the whole class and the whole generation it would be better in the end.

Which age were you when you didn't agree and what age are you now? I also this changes drastically as a teen I wouldn't see why it would be bad but nowadays I do (while also everything just got worse and worse, not to glory my time was any better)

yeah, that's the reason I probably changed my mind, because it was not too long ago that I would fall under such a restriction, and I remember thinking about schools that do this that it is unfair, and wouldn't have wanted to be in such a school.
