The platforms change their DOM, so I need to keep the filters up to date. But I use this app myself and have 10+ active testers who instantly notify me of any bugs.

Thank you so much!!!

That is a smart angle!

It is basically like a browser that "inspect elements" away the addicting parts of social media.

I think the symptom is a self repeating loop that gets worse. they watch the short form content, which makes them more and more addicted to it. So breaking out of it, may get some …

I haven't even seen this option? Where is it

Thank you! I am shipping the YouTube redirect issue in the next update. Currently you can circumvent it by going back to dull and trying again after being redirected, but it's supe…

There is a reason why Meta does not block ad blockers. It's costlier for them to lose users, even if they don't earn ad revenue off them.

Thank you so much!

There's also time limits, challenges before opening apps to create fiction, quiet hours so u don't scroll at night, usage tracking, opening with intention so it asks what u wanna d…

My biggest wish was that you could disable reels/shorts, etc on the native apps. But unless there is some regulation, it won't happen. I actually made a citizen's suggestion to EU …

1) it's already been live for about a month, so definetly not a week long project 2) I use the app myself every day to reduce screentime so I'm highly motivated to keep the app up …

Yeah, Facebook through Dull gives you marketplace and groups without the news feed and suggested content. It's probably the cleanest version of Facebook I've used in years.

Thanks! If one can't completely quit cigarettes, I'd prefer they smoke on a healthier one.

Fair question. The honest answer is I don't know if Instagram or YouTube will try to shut this down. They haven't so far, but that doesn't mean they won't. They can try to come aft…

This seems like a really cool solution! Does it adhere to TOS of the services?

I kept deleting and redownloading Instagram because I couldn't stop watching Reels but needed the app for DMs. Tried screen time limits, just overrode them. So I built this. Dull l…

I kept opening Instagram to check a DM and losing 40 minutes to Reels. Deleting the app meant losing DMs and Stories. So I built a browser that loads the real mobile web versions w…

Hi HN, I built ShipNative to make “clone, configure, ship” realistic for Expo/React Native projects. The focus is on a clean TypeScript base, sensible defaults, and docs that don’t…
