A couple of things: 1. demand more. If a headline can't prove to you that it is relevant, it isn't. This essentially cuts out all click-baits, but that is just the start of it. If Twitter and/or Facebook doesn't _consistently_ provide value to you, they are out. I have a couple of people who insist on organizing things on Facebook, but I just check my notifications (on the site), I don't look at the feed because it does not provide enough value. Reddit is my big issue. I spent way too much time on r/news, r/ukraine etc so I have decided just not to visit reddit until september, then I will have to reevaluate it. 2. Intentionallity. Many sites can be very valuable or a complete waste of time. I have spent a lot of time on YouTube, but I have also gotten a lot of value out of it. I have also watched a lot of videos that were not very valuable. I definitely still struggle with intentionallity, but the idea is that you spend your time on something you want, not what diverse algorithms want you spend the time on. In general: your eyeballs are very important and I think it is fair that you demand a high price for your attention. That doesn't mean that you have to be productive at all times, being paid in fun is fine, being paid in aweinspiringness or whatever else you value is fine too. But demand a high price for your attention. The key is to note on how you feel afterwards: if you feel queizy and slightly-to full on regretfull, then you should change going forward. If you feel happy then, fine, you just spent a lot of time on something you enjoyed - there is no problem with that.
