I built this site as a quick test if a time boxed social media experience feels better than an endless one. So far I've just been using it with friends and it feels nice, but it seems like it is time to bring it to a larger audience.

Let me know what you think! It is just based on EST for now, sorry.

Fun fact: If you don't open a social media account, then you will most likely not spend hours on their apps. Sounds really fucking crazy, but it's true. I tested it myself!

You know what? I've noticed the same thing with eating snacks etc., if you don't buy any, you won't eat any. It's amazing!

Doesn't work that way for me. Not having snacks in the house reduces the average amount of snacks to a minimum.

It however causes cravings sometimes which result in binges
