I was just thinking the other day that SN has more or less obliterated my use of FB n IG. I tend to use IG to post my book reviews. Now that I use ~BooksandArticles regularly, IG has outlived its usefulness. I used to detail my daily adventures on my FB; these days, I just do it on the Saloon.
I think I spend way too much time on SN, but at least I am in the productive mode here, posting n commenting, basically creating a portfolio of uniquely me contents.
How can you spend more time productively on SN that will divert your focus away from FB?
I deleted the FB app so that I introduced more friction for myself whenever I felt the urge to scroll.
I try to plan what I wanna do on social media so that I achieve my objective and then will myself to go elsewhere.
I also listen to YouTube videos while I’m working (sometimes I just replay the video again and again because my mind doesn’t allow me to absorb the key points during work haha) so that I don’t feel the need to watch YouTube after work.
I’m also struggling and experimenting!
