you don’t look at your phone first thing, you wake up to music (but different music everytime so you don’t end up hating the song), you listen to music people chose and not the algo, and they’re like $12

Since teenagehood I always used my iPhone’s alarms, those horrible sounds to abruptly wake me from sleep and comfort. Now I use a radio alarm clock I got from Sharper Image that slowly gets louder over the course of 2 minutes to whatever station I desire! This makes waking up easier, and slower, less abrupt. You also can get lost in the radio, weekends are for the classical station and weekdays are for NPR. I wake up at 7 or 7:30am and lay in bed for a bit listening to the news and stories, not immediately looking at my phone, which now charges out of reach from my bed, which I also recommend! You can get them at Best Buy for like $20.

pretty sure i saw someone on here rec a clock radio instead of a phone alarm... now i don't open my eyes and immediately look at my phone and instead enjoy the classical and jazz from the college radio station in the morning. yes this ancient beast has a terrible speaker but the form factor is unrivaled
