Here’s what works for me. I don’t have any social media apps on my phone. On my laptop, I use the LeechBlock NG Firefox extension to block social media (including HN) from 9:00-18:00 on weekdays, furthermore outside this window, I’ve set it up to not let me browse these sites for more than an hour a day. This restriction does not apply on Saturdays. I work 6 days a week (solo startup founder), and follow a regimen of a digital sabbath on Sundays. Which essentially means, not using any electronics (I do take an occasional phone call from a friend, but nothing more). I spend the day with my family playing board games, picnics at local parks and reading paper books.
