Anybody know a way to completely ban porn from a laptop. Especially the top sites like xvideos and pornhub? My willpower is ok so far but I want a safety net.
I've found wide-net filters not to be too useful. Too many false positives (which start to interfere with regular browsing) and too easy to disable. What worked for me was identifying the most problematic sites for me personally and blocking them in an application called Cold Turkey. I blocked all the top porn sites as well as Instagram, Reddit, etc. Cold Turkey's almost impossible to disable. I ended up buying the license.
The best thing you can do though is to cut your electronics use in the first place. I almost completely stopped browsing mindlessly, which is bad for you too, by the way (fake dopamine hits).
You can do this:

https://www.wikihow.com/Block-a-Website-on-Mac
That's great if it works for you. I've found all the methods in that wikihow article to be trivial to circumvent, whereas Cold Turkey is actually difficult to bypass.
