How I Beat Youtube Addiction
Do you struggle with youtube addiction?
I did too, this is the method that made me break free from 6h of daily youtube
just follow these simple action steps:
  1. Download Unhook in the settings only enable the comments and the subscriptions feed
  2. Unfollow everyone
  3. Open a notes app and write down every Youtuber that provides value to you, stick to 25-50 people
  4. Download Youtube-shorts block this will only let you watch shorts in standard video format, no shorts mode
  5. (Optional) Download Mindful internet use and add youtube and other distracting sites, use the 10s mode with 3 reps
  6. Delete Youtube from your phone (you will only use it for productive procrastination and not for learning)
-----------------------
How to use youtube in the right way:
  • if you need to watch a video search for it
  • if you want to watch videos, check your subscription feed and the watch later feed, in this case, you will limit yourself to that 1h of new video that is there, and you won't browse mindlessly, (this will help you with just watching enough videos and not having the urge to turn off the extension)
BONUS:
  • Time-block your calendar and have clarity about what you need to do
  • Find a purpose and work on it and don't get caught up in the productive procrastination trap
