My 2 cents are to remove any non-essential apps (phone, text, email) and use a desktop for social media. It's mostly how I operate. I personally hate using a phone to write posts because of it's "conveniences" being fucking annoying. If it's "I hate using these apps and I can't stop" I'd interrogate why you feel the need to keep using them and that can limit your time on them.
I also get not being able to use a dumbphone (I love using one). However I also get that the modern world wants us to carry around these fragile fucking things that spy on us and whatnot. So I do have one for work (that I also filled with social media apps and a film about the social impact of smartphones) but I still think of my little brick as "my phone."
