Though I deleted all social media apps, blocked YT shorts and dont use stuff like TikTok, I still fall into attention traps from time to time and suddenly realize that I have spend 2 hours scrolling through a subredit (for example) full of post totally irrelevant to my life and will now be very late on my schedule.
Do you have any strategies to avoid such situations?


I put my phone on top of the shoe rack in the hallway so it’s not always with me. Sometimes it still gets me but sometimes I’ll go half a day without picking it up :)
