I did Facebook Fridays for a while (before gradually losing interest in Facebook).

It was a helpful structure for me: as much Facebook as I wanted on Friday, none the rest of the week. (I use the Messenger app for FB messages so didn't put any limits there. There's even a separate Messenger website!)

I'd end up naturally spending only 20 minutes or so on Fridays; enough to check notifications and realize nothing really interesting or important was actually on there.

I found Facebook Fridays to be more sustainable than going totally cold turkey. Now I just go on Facebook every once in a while if I have a specific purpose.

Hmm, maybe I need to try Twitter Tuesdays or HN Thursdays...
