Serious question, does a plain old kitchen timer actually beat app blockers?
I laughed at my roommate in Austin when she pulled out a $12 wind up timer for her study blocks, but after trying it for 2 hours I got more done than with any app. The thing is I can't snooze it or swipe it away, and the ticking makes it weirdly hard to open a new tab. Has anyone else had a cheap dumb tool beat the fancy software?
