Screentime pt. 3: 2026-W30

It's improved! Yay.

The main thing I did was reduce my Youtube use, I think. The strict rules I set myself weren't followed to the letter, but an improvement's an improvement. Practice makes progress, etc.

The numbers are:

• Mon 20th Jul: 51m
• Tue 21st Jul: 1h 58m
• Wed 22nd Jul: 1h 44m
• Thu 23rd Jul: 3h 10m
• Fri 24th Jul: 2h 07m
• Sat 25th Jul: 1h 34m
• Sun 26th Jul: 1h 46m (so far, but it is 9pm at the moment...)

So, one day below an hour of screentime, and an average over the week of 1h 53m. I'll take that. It's miles better than 5h 49m last week.

In total it's 13h 11m. So, in contrast to last week where 24% of my week was spent on my phone, this week only 7.7% was. It still seems a lot, but it's a lot better! It's not a quarter, it's 1/13.

Next week, I'm going to try lowering it even more, I think by just turning my phone off for good chunks of it. I should be able to get several days with sub-hour screentimes next week.

I think this, alongside improvements in my sleep (from being in my own bed) will make me feel a good bit better!
