What a weird take.
Either way, if there's too many ads in a paid publication, don't subscribe to it.
As someone that doesn't pay a dime for news, this sort of article leaves me pretty content with my investment.
For locking you out of apps based on time, location, or usage, Lock Me Out is really good. You can get most of what you need out of it without paying anything, which can't be said for a lot of the others. (Am I really going to pay a subscription for this? Yuck.)
I couple it with Olauncher, which also doesn't need a subscription.
I'm not affiliated with either, but just those that have worked well for me.
With some tweaks, I can even use it to maintain subscriptions to YouTube channels and social media feeds. It’s maybe a subtle distinction, but I feel like having a very prosaic, chronological list of posts/articles/videos promotes healthier habits for consuming them.
Now THERE's a business model. Hot damn.
You pay a subscription to kill your subscriptions whilst your in queue for your subscriptions to get more for your addictions...
If your smart enough to ask no. If your not gullible enough to have your action taken from you, no. If you're too childish to believe a habit is an addiction yes, if you're too stupid to know the difference yes, and if you're a fool you'll simply pay for the pro plus version.
