I do work crazy hours, so sometimes i let myself get distracted for 30 minutes or so, just to relax.
Having said that, while working I don't have much trouble with social media/googling stuff, since I'm logged off everything while working (except youtube :D).
What's really getting me distracted are sometimes the insane compilation times - every small code modification, and sometimes I need to wait another 45 seconds. Sometimes this just doesn't let me get in "flow" mode - but it is what it is. Apparently, for a good while, there's nothing for me to do (I hope MS will improve on those compilation times, but that will probably happen 8+ months from now)
As for email - I'm only subscribed to one thing (codeproject).
I stopped checking Indie Hackers long time ago - seems good info is really hard to find, just procrastination there.
