The solution I've found is screen time limits. Sorry it sounds gay and retarded, but we were created gay and retarded human beings, and we need child safety locks on the internet in order to do the things we enjoy.

First, for my phone (iphone) I use the apple screen time limits in combination with the password-locker.com website. I set the limits for all social media (including youtube and discord) to 0 minutes on my phone (because you don't need social media on a phone), and used the password blocker website to create a screen time code I can't remember. It's technically a paid service, but you only have to pay the subscription if you ever want to find out what the code is. If you never try to get around the screen time limits you never have to pay.

Second, for my computer I use the Cold Turkey Blocker app. You can block websites and apps on your computer, and set up amount of allowed time. It costs $45 to get the fully featured pro app, I think is worth it. Otherwise there's a free version, and a 7 day free trial of the pro version. Alternatively you could try to set up time limits using Microsoft family settings, but it wasn't built to block yourself, so it's not ideal. There might be another app out there which is free, who knows.

You may laugh at needing to pay real life money just to set up screen time limits and block apps, but you're the one too retarded to just stop using the shit you claim you don't want to use. Make sure you can't bypass any of the limits, because you will if you can.

If reading feels like a chore, why are you doing it?

not OP, but it feels great once you actually start doing it. It's merely the activation energy for the process that causes difficulty

I cant find a comfy place to read, I'm a poorfag and all I have is a bed and laptop.
Reading in bed is ok for a little while but it gets tiresome and I fall asleep, I need one of those comfy old recliners and quiet place free from other humans.
I dare not read in the lounge room where the normies reside and watch ball sports, jewsmedia and shout at the televitz.

If you can find a better time limiter for PC you should share it so people don't have to pay like I did

Get a beanbag (they're cheap) thrust it up against a wall, and read half reclined on the floor. Many books read this way in supreme comfort during my poor fag days

Considering I spend no time socializing, I figure my time on 4chan can go in that block. So all things considered, I am not wasting time. Today I read a lot of Livy and wrote copious notes as well

Android has Digital Wellbeing app built in, I just set a 2 hour timer for 4chan client (Chance) and that's it. No retarded passwords, no 45 dollars, no turkey blockers. I can lift the restriction at any time, but rarely do.

Just get a book and read, holy niggers, it's not that difficult. Read short stories, read gripping romantasy slop that you can't put down for 3 hours at a time, read comic books. One day you'll be ready for Iliad.
