I’d love to decrease my screentime and I want to implement a digital sunset after 8PM. However, it can be hard to enforce this. I made this [separate topic](http://community.humanetech.com/t/how-to-enforce-a-digital-sunset/3395) to discuss the options.

Having a digital sunset between 8PM and 8AM will save me a lot of screentime! Usually, I’m on my phone and laptop a lot between 8PM and 2AM, mabe ±4 hours extra screen-time per day can be saved this way!

PS: I can’t get as low as 5hours/week because I use my laptop for work 40hours a week too, but I also try to [lock away my smartphone during the day to increase productivity](https://karsens.com/changing-reachability-to-increase-productivity/). For me, ±50h/week screentime could be achievable, I’m now on ±80h/week!!!1
