    It’s astonishing how much better your mental health is if you stay off social media even for a few days.

      1000% Even on Lemmy, my default view is my subscribed communities and none of them are political so, outside of Linux v Windows drama and associated memes I don’t have to see much outrage (not counting Mint users, smh)

      The best tip I’ve found is to delete the apps and force yourself to use the web interface (and turn on private mode in your browser so it clears your cookies ever time so you have to type your username and password each time).

      Adding that little bit of friction is enough to overcome the random compulsions to check social media. Not that typing in your username and password is hard, but it is annoying enough that you’ll avoid it usually.
