I haven’t gone cold turkey and deleted my account on Instagram because I still like to use it to check menus/store hours of places that only post on IG + get inspo for nail art. BUT I’ve found only using the web version has successfully curbed my scrolling—there’s just enough friction in the process to get me off the app as soon as I find what I need (things load…more slowly)
