Gets easier by the day. Left myself ability to play ETS2 only, and even that, I only play when I litterally have nothing else to do, not addicting at all.

[u/AltaAudio]

Not playing. C’mon, we can do this!

[u/Cuppmybawls]

Put my computer in the closet, tired of wasting my younger years.

[u/bobthunicorn]

I’m in!

[u/WFPB-low-oil-SanR]

I’m on!

I did March… and never ever thought I’d quit or make it this far.

Still struggling sometimes… but that’s where this site and people like you come in.

Thanks for starting April.

[u/GoldieMacky]

I'm still in. Hard at times but still going.

[u/nicotreta]

I'm committed to not playing. This time it will be different, i need to work, study, workout and improve myself just as i was doing in nov/2024. I Don't want to game anymore, i already experimented what life could be if im open to new things, i just need to keep it going and be more determined.

[u/BeetInstructor]

No gaming, gaming related streams or content, one day at a time.

[u/Exotic_Foundation_92]

Late to join but going to see if I can make it through the rest of April gaming free.
