Smartphones May Affect Sleep—but Not Because of Blue Light

New research has found that blue light from your smartphone screen won’t keep you up at night. But you still shouldn’t doomscroll in bed—here’s why.

    Lovely paywall. Super interesting.

        Or different browsers. Wired is soft paywall, iirc 5 articles a month. Like you said, super easy

          They also paywall some ad-blockers.

            Honest question. Which ones? On mobile uBlock Origin/ Firefox and Cromite with easy list etc. don’t seem to have a problem with it. Mulch will hit the pay wall, but that doesn’t have ad blocking.

              I use Block This! on my Android device, which essentially a pseudo-VPN that blackholes ad requests (as well as some trackers and miscellany). Wired bounces me immediately if I have it enabled.

                Indeed, that is just an ad blocker. I looked at their github and it hasn’t been updated in 7 years.

                For good basic ad blocking you might want to try something like https://controld.com/free-dns which works well. No app required, just set it in your DNS on Android.

                If you want more finetuning look at the app https://www.rethinkdns.com/

                For bypassing pay walls you want something like Cromite (Chromium) or better Firefox, or a privacy fork like Mull.

                  “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” has been my model 😉 And Wired aside, it does work phenomenally well. But I will take a look at your suggestion.
