To stop infinite scroll on social media, quickly scroll 2-3 screen lengths down without looking at the posts. Now read the posts scrolling up. Eventually you’ll reach where you started and most probably the laziness to go all the way back will prompt you to exit the app.
I changed the icon location, and my muscle memory still was trying to open them from the previous location, basically in a complete auto-pilot mode. That led me to a realization of how fucked up the situation was, and eventually helped me uninstall/reduce screen time of those apps.
For some reason I always have a habit of scroll to the bottom of any list and reading up. Like I wanna confirm how long the list is before working my way up

That’s amazing!
Now give me a tip to prevent myself from opening the same app immediately after hahaha

Instead of closing an app, shutdown the phone. Now it’s a pain to reopen the app.
With how fast phones start up nowadays, that’s hardly a pain
New tip: Install bloatware to make it slower
