Why not just set up your /etc/hosts file to block all the sites that you're addicted to? That's what I do and it's pretty shocking how much I've realized I visit them out of habit.
- distractible 10y agoI've definitely tried it. The issue I've encountered is that I substitute it with some other distraction, such as my phone, and it appears to be an endless cat and mouse game. I'd like a solution that satiates the craving, rather than configuring countless locks. To adhere to the addiction analogy: As a substitute for a cigarette, I'd like a pen to hold, rather than abstinence by throwing the pack in a safe that I know the combination to. Even if I entrusted someone else with the combination, the unfulfilled craving and the knowledge of where to find a fix, have proven difficult to separate.
