For me it's Timehop. I'm kinda addicted to it (currently on a 762-day streak) 🙈 What's yours?

@de Not sure if it counts as a product, but solitare is still my favorite timekiller.
Julie Chabin
@de Same, Timehop every morning! What's your streak today?
Dan Edwards
@syswarren 762 days 🙈
Abadesi
@de @syswarren No I deleted Timehop so long ago, I'm all about living in the present. That said I consider Instagram a "Guilty Pleasure" because I can't count the time I spend on it productive yet I'm on it soooo much. I love their AI filters 🤓
Justin Ahn
@de Instagram, hands down. I even use hashtags #imsecretlyateenager...
Lucas Hogendoorn
Using hashtags would kind of make you the opposite of a normal teenager haha
Angela Gyetvan
@de Twitter. Always.
Jan Kovařík
@de For me it's definitely Netflix, especially when a new series of my favorite show is out.
Dan Edwards
@jankovarik Yeah! What show's are you loving at the moment?
Jan Kovařík
@de I'm going for Rick and Morty, again, from a season 1 - as I saw it only twice before :B
Dan Edwards
@jankovarik Hah! I've still hardly watched Rick and Morty!
Abdullah Al Mallak
@de hands down Instagram, anybody has got anyway to beat it's addictive algorithms, please share :)
Dan Edwards
@abdullah_mallak Haha, lots of people saying Instagram!
Dennis
@de @abdullah_mallak Delete it off your phone until it's not a habit, then when you redownload it (if ever) keep all the notifications off. That has worked for me - I honestly barely even check it now.
Abdullah Al Mallak
@de @dennis2 I have the notifications off for almost a year and a half, it's the habit of scrolling endlessly that I need to overcome. but yea might give the deletion a shot. thanks a lot :)
Phillip Martin
@de no love for Pinterest?? Have to admit I find it weird that its my go to app when stuck at traffic lights but there you go.
Dan Edwards
@phillip_martin I love Pinterest, but don't consider it a guilty pleasure (for me at least)!
Phillip Martin
Fair enough, I'm guessing your probably more productive with it than I am tbh!! anyway feel better about it now ;)
Ryan Hoover
@de just a little heavy whipping cream in my Philz ;)
Emerson Dameron

Karming Chin
@de Love scrolling around Flipp each time I hit the bathroom - always gotta check what's on sale haha
Achi Ram
@de Twitter. Wasting too much time there. Punished by the Flying Spaghetti Monster recently by getting kicked out after a series of unfortunate password errors after my phone got stolen. Starting fresh now maybe it will help me kick the habit a bit.
Dan Edwards
@achi_ram yikes! Do you want to simply spend less time on Twitter or none at all?
Kaushik Thirthappa
@de Reddit ! now and probably forever
Gildo Fiorito
@de my kindle paperwhite!
Jason Hoffer
@de I'm not publicly admitting this but *candy-crush*. oh, did I just do that? :/
Dan Edwards
@jasonhoffer1 I heard nothing 🙉
Parth Shrivastava
@de Instagram, hands down. Nobody is coming close nowadays.
Dan Edwards
@parth_sh Interesting many others consider Instagram a guilty pleasure, I hadn't even thought of it that way...
Kevin
@de Twitter. But also Journal One, it's funny to see what was on my mind "n" years ago.
Dan Edwards
@keeev Yeah, same for me with Timehop!
Astha Sharma
@de I'd say Instagram or Snapchat lol trying to spend less time on them though. Soo impressive with Timehop! I would never last more than a few months.
Dan Edwards
@astha_sharma Hah, I never thought I would to be honest!
