I gave a very similar talk back in 2018: "Getting un-hooked from technology: using tech to fight tech". I wrote it up here: https://uxdesign.cc/getting-unhooked-from-technology-86ca8beff451 https://uxdesign.cc/getting-unhooked-from-technology-86ca8be... I still use a YouTube Unhook extension (a better one than the one I wrote, though with nearly the same name, hilariously), though I'm not as good at some of the other practices I used to use. My attempts to avoid tech's magnetism is confounded by my current role in developer relations, where social media is a necessary part of the job. But maybe my next role will be one where I can detach from it a bit more.

  Unhook extension: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/unhook-remove-youtube-rec/khncfooichmfjbepaaaebmommgaepoid https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/unhook-remove-youtu... That's the one I use now, it has more features than the one I made.
