Any thoughts on how to customize LessWrong to make it LessAddictive? I just really, really like the editor for various reasons, so I usually write a bunch (drafts, research notes, study notes, etc) using it but it’s quite easy to get distracted.
You could use the ad & content blocker uBlock Origin to zap any addictive elements of the site, like the main page feed or the Quick Takes or Popular Comments. Then if you do want to access these, you can temporarily turn off uBlock Origin.
Incidentally, uBlock Origin can also be installed on mobile Firefox, and you can manually sync its settings across devices.

Maybe make a habit of blocking
