    Bud, you sound like a technophile geek. The kind of person who custom built his own computer. You’re not the target customer. Apple builds products for people that don’t care about technology, they just care about what the technology does and want it to be easy and seamless. And that is a vast majority of the people.



  • News Feed Eradicator is a must have. I can check in on Facebook for personal messages and events, even post occasionally… but I don’t see the feed and I’m not the least bit tempted.

    It’s also good for sites like Reddit (which I’m migrating away from, of course) where you can disable it for a set amount of time, to enjoy some idle web browsing time without slipping into a vortex.

    Also, not a browser extension, but I use Google’s Family Link to moderate my web use. I can’t access social media on my phone. My wife administers it. It’s occasionally inconvenient, but on the whole it has been transformative.
