I've been feeling overwhelmed by youtube recommendations. And short stories. These things can be addictive!

Turning youtube off for good is still a dream. But there's away to tame it down quite a bit: https://unhook.app

I'm pretty sure there are many options for this. But Unhook is quite flexible and it's the one that worked for me. Really enjoying being able to turn Shorts off and also using my subscriptions page as the home page.

If you're looking for a way to manage your YouTube usage without quitting entirely, Unhook is a practical solution worth considering. It's available for most browsers and could be the key to regaining control over your time and attention.
