That honestly is a tool that should be used more often.

"Oh, Twitter is a cesspool!" Agreed, don't use it.

"Oh I hate Instagram influencers!" Don't use it.

"Fuck Facebook." Great, don't use it.

"Windows 10 is awful." Other alternatives are available.

I know what people will say. "Hurr durr, I can't quit it for XYZ reason". Fine, you can judge that for your own life. But I will say that life is SO much better when you are able to deploy this absolutist hammer with a force of an anvil. I DON'T use Facebook or Twitter or Instagram so I just don't know how much of a cesspit those places really are. There is SO much life to live beyond staring at a rectangular lamp. As my mum says, if it's a chronic problem, either accept it or find a coping mechanism.
