Agreed. I started with three 25-min sessions with 5-min breaks in-between. My long breaks were 15 min. I slowly built up to only needing the single session.

Found the "Be Focused Pro" app (Mac-only, I believe) helpful for tracking and exporting my Pomodoro data.

Clever! I feel your short-delay trick is similar to switching to grayscale on your phone: both ideas increase friction on "bad" habits. I'll give Crackbook Revival a try 👍
