In this chapter, we first discuss always connected and always online sentiments normalising the assumed ubiquitous omnipresence of digital media and how this shapes our understanding of offline time and time away from the media. In recent years, the topic of disconnection, media abstention and media resistance found new prominence, highlighting the time without media as a test case for understanding the deep impact of digitalisation and digital media pervasiveness on our sense of time, sociability and understanding of culture and society at large. We then present the methodological take on our re-analysis of a series of studies conducted in the past, which led us to several categorisations of temporal understandings we found in the data. We conclude with a discussion of the findings and suggestions for future research.
