I stopped doing this a month ago. On firefox on my phone and laptop I have used an extension called leechblock-ng to block hacker news and lobste.rs because I hate reading about AI. Obviously it didn't turn out to be a silver bullet for all the problems in my life. But not reading techbros say weird shit about LLMs has been a huge improvement.
