Oh! I’m giving up Youtube! Nice. Also Netflix, which is the obvious next thing I would start using more.
(Specifics: I’ll only use either of them with friends, which is pretty rare (i.e. the occasional movie). I’ll also let myself get friends to download and send me videos, like 3Blue1Brown’s series on Linear Algebra.)
P.S. I use the app SelfControl, which means I’m unable to load blacklisted pages (there’s also a whitelisting option). It makes it incredibly hard to break without doing a lot of coding in the terminal. I set it for a month.
Added: Oops I accidentally blacklisted facebook on my laptop. I still have it on my phone, but this actually seems like a good thing on net.
I will try out not using YouTube for 7 days, and if it still seems like a good idea then, will not use it for a month. Exception are UC Berkeley course captures.

FYI, SelfControl looks like it should be a link due to being underlined, but I can’t actually click on it.
Thanks, fixed.
