I pulled up the app on my mobile phone and tried it: I was walking home that night from the office pondering my predicament, when suddenly it hit me. I started brainstorming elaborate explanations involving dead relatives about why I needed access to the e-mail…Īll of my options were messy. ![]() ![]() Not to mention it would be an embarrassing e-mail exchange. Plus this site doesn’t look like it has a support team. We’ve already established I’m wildly impatient. But they would probably take a while to get back to me. I could write in to LetterMeLater and explain that I didn’t mean to do this. What do I do? Do I just have to create a new Reddit account and start from scratch? But that’s so much work. I also set it to “hide,” so I couldn’t view the contents of the e-mail until it’s sent. I didn’t remember doing this, but I must have gotten so fed up with myself that I locked myself out until 2018. I decide to scrounge up my old account and find my Reddit password. This means waiting, and waiting of course means internet rabbit holes. And Airbnb, it so happens, has a large test suite. It worked quite well from what I remember.Įventually I got so busy with programming stuff, I completely forgot about it. Perfect - an automated, friend-less solution! (I’d alienated most of them by now, so that was a big selling point.)Ī bit sketchy looking, but hey, any port in a storm.įor a while I set this up this routine - during the week I’d e-mail myself my password, on the weekends I’d receive the password, load up on internet junk food, and then lock myself out again once the week began. A little Google searching, and I came across this: Looks legit. The technical terminology for this is that they are “nice to you” and will give you back your password if you “beg them.”Īfter a few rounds of this failure mode, I needed a more robust solution. Unfortunately it turns out, friends are very susceptible to social engineering. (Also changed the e-mail for password recovery to cover all the bases.) With that, I’d have a foolproof way to lock myself out of Reddit. Then I asked a friend to e-mail me this password on a certain date. So it occurred to me: how about I lock myself out of my account? 2015 was one of these times - I was singularly focused on improving as a programmer, and Redditing was becoming a liability. But sometimes you need to turn on the blinders and dial down distractions. If I want to procrastinate on something, I’ll often open a new tab and dive down a Reddit-hole. This allows me to consciously engineer my life so that despite having the emotional maturity of a heroin-addicted lab rat, I’m occasionally able to get things done. Post not showing up?
