The 10 minute timer that broke my doomscroll loop in Detroit traffic
I got stuck sitting in I-94 construction every day for 2 weeks, and my phone time hit 6 hours just from red light scrolling. Tried app blockers, grayscale, all that stuff, nothing stuck. Then I set a dumb kitchen timer for 10 minutes before I even touched the phone in the car. When it beeped, I had to put the phone in the glovebox or I lost the game, and I stored a $20 bill in there as the prize for making it to work without checking. Last Wednesday I actually drove the whole 45 minutes without unlocking once, which felt weirdly like winning a tiny lottery. Anyone else tried a physical timer or a money stake to kill the car scroll habit?
