Filtering aggressively keeps the toxic stuff out, but doesn’t keep me from compulsively checking. In the past, I’ve set daily screen time limits on apps I use too much. Like parental controls, so it makes me enter a code if I want to keep using it. That helps. And a substitute habit helps. If I want to scroll on my phone, read a book there instead of checking social media. It’s still screen time, but it’s immersive concentration, with a different effect on the mind.
