So, to save yourself from wasting time on Facebook, this is our plan today. Here we will highlight some effective ways to reduce Facebook usage.
1. If you want to cut back on Facebook, write down something as a password that reminds you why you want to cut back on Facebook. For example, let's say you have an exam ahead of you, so you want to reduce the use of Facebook, but you can write exam knocking the door or something like that as a password.
2. If you are a Chrome browser user on your desktop or laptop, you can use a browser extension called stayFocused. Install it.

As a result you have to login again.
3. Go here if you are a Windows user. Open the hosts file in notepad. Now enter the Facebook domain next to the IP address. Block is done. Now you will not be able to access Facebook from your PC.
4. Do not keep mobile or laptop around during your studies or other work. Keep these two things away as much as possible and sit down to read or work. If possible, turn them off.
