On iOS, I've tried nearly everything, but here's what's lasted more than a few months.

1. A physical blocker like Brick (getbrick.app) and/or a Kitchen Timer Safe (KSafe).

2. One Sec app

I'll occasionally leave my phone at home and use only an Apple Watch with LTE.

These are the only flows that haven't become frustrating over time and have worked to cut screen time and addicted apps (or altogether).


One Sec broke my addiction to doomscrolling apps. The feature that makes you look at your face for two seconds when you open the app, while telling you that you last opened it a minute ago, is both hilarious and effective.


has anyone dug into whether one sec is safe (private offline on device as it states)? it requires access to accessibility settings, which means that it could be reading all of you cryptocurrency apps, passwords as well as two-factor authentication


I just needed to create shortcuts. I don’t remember needing to grant any further accessibility settings, but I don’t currently have it installed.


Had a blog that was seeing 40,000 monthly, but I deleted all the posts when my interests changed. I regret it deeply.

I started a new one this month - https://nosduhz.com

So I guess I meet both of your criteria for the best times to start a blog!


You might be able to dig your old content out of the Internet Archive. I used it to restore some of my lost content a few years ago: https://simonwillison.net/2017/Oct/8/missing-content/


The Internet Archive is, I suppose, the most underrated feature of the Internet.


Good point. I might grab a few of the more better posts.


I sure hope so. It's part of the approach we're taking for e-commerce search with https://shopdeft.com


In the case of "best office chair", the most valuable content is probably written by someone who's tried the product and is similar to you. I've had the most success finding those people hanging out in an obscure forum.

The SEO spam sites might do a good job reading the office chair's product page and wordsmithing something compelling, but often they haven't tried it at all. They're incentivized to sell something and that incentive leads to less value (in my opinion).


I find people hanging out in an obscure forum are good at having an opinion and less good at having an experience that matches my experience.
