I rarely look at websites on my phone. I like the GIANT screen on the iMac.
Looking at various sites, it seems phones are taking over. I have seen 60% phone vs. 30% computer, and climbing.
What device or devices do you use to ruin your brain... I mean look at all of man's knowledge?
When I’m on the throne, I use my phone.

Mix of Phone, laptop, or desktop, just depends on where I am at.

Quick forum browsing is phone or tablet.   Any real research, shopping, etc, is done on my desktop or laptop.
Well, I use Brave browser and Brave search engine on the iPhone.  
Used to use Firefox or Dolphin.
My iPad syncs with the phone, so I have to delete most things off it.

I usually break stuff, so I like Dell>more than an iPhone. I love the way it sounds on a Yamaha R-S202 receiver with Bluetooth. Most legacy programs I have, still function on it. i7 processor + 32GB of RAM 1TB SSD,  boots in a few seconds.

Phone and computer. Depends on what I am looking at or where I am.

Primarily phone. If I'm working, I use my laptop.
Pretty much just use my phone. I also have an iPad that I would use at the house which is basically just a larger version of an iPhone but I honestly haven?t used it in a while.

I try to avoid using my phone...unless I'm out and about and need to look something up.  At home it's ALWAYS a desktop.
I'm probably 98% desktop use vs 2% phone.

This is exactly why I use my phone. I am almost always on the go either for work or personal stuff. 
Also, I don?t own a computer. I have one at work but the IT monkeys have it locked down so that using it for anything other than company business is impossible. Needless to say on slower days if I?m in the office I?m on my phone a lot.
75% desktop 35% phone, mostly on the john. Always have a billion tabs open, which is not phone friendly. 
And yes, before someone's inner Nazi is about to say an explicative. Sometimes I'm using both. Looking up stuff on the phone about what I'm doing on the PC, or something.
The only time I need / require my phone for access is when looking for outages on my local internet provider...or power company. 
  I do use the phone some times for maps, and such when mobile.   For other uses, I have used either my Amazon Fire HD or
 maybe Raspberry PI for web access.   I picked up the Raspberry PI hardware to look up stuff when I am away from my computer.
I keep that setup in the utility room.  I picked up the Amazon Fire HD mostly to watch video when I am on the road and I don't 
want to carry a laptop.
Now if I am at work, work - I will use Fire HD, phone, with almost zero on the computer.
So at home - 99% computer 1% everything else
At work - Fire HD (Tablet) - 90%, phone 10%.
Always at home, desktop computer.
Don't own a laptop or a stupidphone.

Pretty much always my ipad.  Laptop is used for work.  Phone is used to text.  I do some internet stuff on the phone when in the car.
