It doesn't work for me. Editing a file isn't nearly enough friction to dissuade me. Even more advanced blocking programs didn't work for me. Instead of spending time browsing the internet, I spent lots of time figuring out how to circumvent the blocker. No work was done either way.
- ci5er 9y agoYou sound like me. I'm not really very social (but I like people), so just unscribe works for me. I use LinkedIn as a rolodex. What did (if a anything) work for you?
- ropeadopepope 9y agoI'm still working on it. I fear the only viable solution is going to be to drastically change how I interact with computers and the internet. There was a period of about a week where my home cable internet was down and I had to pair my phone with my computer in order to work. I don't have an unlimited plan and I was constantly afraid of running out of data, so I didn't go to any website I didn't absolutely have to. The fear of not being able to work when I needed to and getting fired was a good motivator. I immediately reverted to old habits when my internet came back for good.
