I'll tell you what happens.
You end up compulsively refreshing hn and reddit while telling yourself that you've increased your productivity.
- crushcrashcrush 8y ago^^^ Bingo.
- zentropia 8y agoLOL. Yes. I feel the same.
- munk-a 8y agoThis does come with the bonus of leaving far less of an advertising trail across the net, so I think it's still a win.
- CharlesW 8y ago> You end up compulsively refreshing hn and reddit while telling yourself that you've increased your productivity. Anecdotally, I didn't. According to this study, on average, that's not what other participants did either: "They didn’t replace Facebook with another social media platform like Twitter."
- IIAOPSW 8y agoAnecdotally I just looked at your profile and you comment on hn approx once per day.
- thatoneuser 8y agoHalf an hour a day isn't an issue
- doubleorseven 8y agoCorrect. I closed all of my social media accounts 6 years ago and I must say that you do end up missing collections of stories. I could read a blog here and there but at the end I'm drawn to links and comments in a chronological order.
