If you’re like me, you have a habit of typing reddit.com whenever you have some time to kill at a computer.

Kicking habits takes time, so as you develop a new habit of typing kbin.social (or lemmy.world or whatever the case may be), consider a browser extension that blocks or redirects traffic from reddit to your desired new social media destination.

For Firefox, I have found these to be helpful over the last week:

      Oh, good idea! I hadn’t used uBlock for manually blocking sites before.

      There’s also blocking/redirecting at the router level, although that’s a bit more advanced and router-specific.
