What if you could make it more expensive to get cheap dopamine?

What if you were forced to reconsider before wasting time?
Would that make it more or less likely you do?

What if you got a chance to stop before losing too much?

One small nudge can change your trajectory for the next hour.

What if you lose track of time?

Do you think interventions that force you to stop would help you wake up from the cheap dopamine trance?

What if every second you wasted showed exactly what it cost you?
New Tab Page Preview

Do you think this would make you reconsider the time that gets wasted?

But what if you can't stop scrolling?

What if the tab closed itself and locked the cheap dopamine, so you get a chance to escape the dopamine trap?

And the sites you're done with for good?
Hidden Value site blocked screen — the site is off limits

Block them outright, and they stay off limits. The hard wall is there when you want it — but once you can see what a site costs, you stop wanting to switch it back on.

The cost

You'd never drop $200 on a jacket without thinking about it.
But you'll scroll for 2-3 hours with no thought at all.

Same cost as the jacket. The only difference is you can't see it. Hidden Value makes it impossible to miss.

The upside

What if you got back 30% of the attention that's stolen from you?

The goal isn't to restrict access to cheap dopamine. It's to make you feel like it's not worth it in the first place.
