I’ve gone so far as setting up a content blocker on my phone and putting Reddit on a blocklist.&lt;p&gt;I just can’t handle all the front page content that elicits outrage and&amp;#x2F;or incredulity, and the comment threads can be just as outrageous as the content itself.&lt;p&gt;Still, I dig so many of the communities on there, so I browse by setting aside time and hopping on my desktop.&lt;p&gt;I don’t use my desktop much (maybe a couple times a week), so I find it creates a nice mental partition from my day-to-day life and let’s me engage with Reddit on my own terms. Frankly, Reddit is a blast in small doses, so I’m happy with the balance I’ve struck.</text><parent_chain><item><author>arduinomancer</author><text>Anyone else burnt out from the outrage cycle in recent times?&lt;p&gt;I don’t know if it’s selfish but I just don’t have the energy anymore to care about what bad thing person X or company Y did this week.&lt;p&gt;My current philosophy is to treat news&amp;#x2F;Reddit&amp;#x2F;social media like email in the old days.&lt;p&gt;That is: log on to a desktop computer once a week and read the highlights.
