That’s an interesting approach, thanks for sharing. I will dig into both ideas more for cellular service blocking, thanks for breaking this open a bit for me.
I wish sometimes someone could offer up a solution where if I opted in, then reddit and the rest of my known offender websites that suck my time and attention abilities away get blocked for life. The issue, in my mind, is essentially mass auto-opting in to tech consumer patterns and it being very hard to “opt out” without data sales/privacy or DIY FOSS blocking.
I wish I had better willpower to stop my internet patterns organically, and I have axed out big chunks over the years (social media is only hackernews and LI for me). Or, I could probably reach out for an ADHD diagnosis. I’m fairly certain I don’t have it unless it’s some internet-induced version, but I know the RXs work for focus. I don’t want to get locked into a RX dependency just for 101 life functionality in the face of the internet though. Tough times.
