I just catched myself looking at reddit again.

To remind myself not to use reddit in the next few days (or never again if I succeed) I added it to my uBlock filter list. Additionally I deleted all reddit apps from my phone.

What’s your strategy on how to avoid reddit?

    I spend an unhealthy amount of time on reddit. So I realized I have to make changes. The timing of things helped me to make the decision easier.

      Just curious, if your goal is to reduce internet usage, isn’t spending more time here on lemmy equally detrimental to that goal?

        The goal for me right now is to reduce/eliminate reddit usage as it wasn’t providing anything to my life. I was just scrolling and wasting time on mostly useless content.

        So far lemmy has been more interesting and engaging, additionally I prefer that it’s more aligned with the open source movement.
