I quit reddit using this app.
I was quite addicted and would constantly and unconsciously open reddit, and even though I was only participating in smaller, innocently looking subs, they were actually quite toxic. R/learnJapanese was fx full of people who wanted to learn Japanese and wanted everybody else to stop so they could have it for themselves.
I added it as a negative task and that made me conscientious about my visits and made me quit.
It also got me started flossing.
Weekly tasks that did not have a specific day, I failed at, but I think it was the open nature of when they had to be done and not the games fault.

But just those two habits was a big win.
