I use RSS Guard as local RSS feed manager, and I've slapped all my channels in there. No more reliance on "The Algorithm", and I can now see how freaking many channels I actually follow. I can now start cutting into the spammers, those that don't put out content at all, etc.

Also using Firefox with "Youtube-shorts block", which turns a short into a normal video, so I can't start doom-scrolling.

It cut procrastination-times down enough where I now feel I can program again.
