Developer's Wife Locks His Devices at 8pm Daily to Force Sleep and Workout Receipts

Developer kitze shares his extreme digital detox: his wife locks his phone and all devices in his office at 8pm daily, unlocking them only if he shows proof of enough sleep plus a one-hour workout. His only entertainment outside is a physical book — day two and counting. To critics calling it a self-control issue, he fires back: post your own screen time, workout streak, and phone habits during family time first. Reposter jamesbrooksco says he needs this too.
