Daily Update

Hello, Check out my progress for this past Thursday. It looks like I’ve managed to reduce YouTube to very little but now I’ve spent more time on cracked.com . It is not as bad as YouTube, however, because it seems like I was able to limit it to 1 hour. Other than that, it was a pretty normal day. My eye was feeling pretty dry on that day so I probably went to sleep earlier.

Check out what’s going on on Friday. It seems like I’ve managed to get some work done, after all. Keep up the good work. I think it’s day 4 of no YouTube? Except for some video viewing here and there from cracked.com it seems like I’ve been able to stay on the wagon.

 

Today I installed leechblock for Firefox, wasteNoTime on Chrome and Safari, as well as added youtube.com, cracked.com to /etc/hosts to combat these issues. I’ve also uninstalled the Cracked Light Reader app on my phone as well as the YouTube app. It look some work to uninstall the YouTube app since it was system, but I’ve managed to do it. I was also able to add the youtube.com and cracked.com entries into /etc/hosts on the phone so that even Chrome (which, for some reason, still doesn’t have extensions on Android) can be blocked. Firefox Mobile has a good add-on that blocks those sites.
