My fingers just keep pressing Ctrl+T, r-e-d, enter, before I jolt awake and think “I told myself I would not do this!”. I may have a problem.

    I replaced my Reddit app (boost) on my Homescreen with jerboa so muscle memory will always take me here And to be extra sure I paused the Reddit app so if I try to open it I would get a popup from Android if I am really sure

    So to answer the question: since replacing the app on the Homescreen not a single time

      Same here. Since my main habit is tapping that spot, it made sense to just change that spot to Jerboa. No accidental Reddit visits.

      I did the same thing with Boost. I also blocked the entire site on my router just to be extra sure.

      I made the mistake a couple times opening up baconreader before I just downloaded jerboa and replaced my home screen link, like you.

      Been enjoying Lemmy since and trying to figure it out. I love the decentralization of it and I think I’ll stay.

    None I put Jerboa in the same spot as my reddit app on my home screen. I used my muscle memory to my advantage.

    I logged in yesterday to take my sub dark and I’ve replied to a few comments on a post I made about a week ago looking for help with a router, but I used RiF to reply to the comments, other than that I’ve been using Lemmy

    None, I logged off my account to prevent “unintended” logins while opening the browser and I started my “personal” blackout during reddark stream (I’m not a mod so I didn’t have any task to do on it).

    I’m not feeling any need to go there either, I feel busy here and that’s nice.

    I moved the mlem app to where my Apollo would usually be and hid Apollo which has made it a lot easier to not mistakenly open Reddit

    I keep going back to watch it all fall apart. I’ll stop going once the API access is gone and I can’t use RIF anymore.

    Plenty of times. I exclusively interact with it on my phone with a 3rd party app. As soon as the app stops working, I stop Reddit. I’m not installing the Reddit app. The boycott is kinda a moot point for me.

    If you use Firefox, you can set a keyword for a bookmark, so when you type red, it will take you to that bookmark.

    Only one time yesterday to check if the blackout began and I thought I had my reddit addiction under control. But today I unintentionally clicked on reddit a couple of times :(
