Are Self Control and Freedom.to for different purposes or the same? Should I try multiple app/website blockers till I find one that’s right for me, or is there an agreed upon best one that I can just adopt with no experimentation?
Freedom is overall best (it syncs across your devices and can block apps on desktop), but self control had a different mechanism that was harder to circumvent
Used to be. Now Freedom is a lot better. They have an app to block you from your phone’s and tablet’s apps/websites (on top of your computer’s websites and apps). Self Control only blocks websites on mac. Self Control is free, but Freedom is worth paying for imo.
And you can create custom block lists and scheduled block time in Freedom.
I used to use Cold Turkey, which I liked, but Freedom is much better.
