Ask HN: How do you conquer your phone addiction?
- vladmk 4y agoI make it a habit to keep my phone more than an arms length away from me at home. This will stop you from constantly grabbing it and therefore using it

- ddingus 4y agoMight I suggest it's not the phone? It's the communication and dopamine hits you get from that phone you struggle with. And I am saying that because you are very likely to move those to whatever else you use, which does you no real service. What you need to do is have some boundaries. Once you've set a few, you can then evaluate what is worth what with some better perspective and that dopamine will have less value and other things in your life will have more.

The other thing I did just recently was this exciting purchase: https://www.phonearena.com/phones/Nokia-208_id7943 https://www.phonearena.com/phones/Nokia-208_id7943 Well I'm not sure if it's exactly this one, couldn't care less. I pick it up maybe twice a week.
