Instagram has been getting me with this. I like to post sometimes, but my friends and I recently compared our screen time stats and I couldn’t believe I was regularly wasting hours a day mindlessly scrolling IG. I uninstalled the app and will just occasionally post from my computer.

I took it off my home screen and started using one of those screen time apps. I check it two or three times a day now, instead of however many it was before.
