You're very good at rationalizing. I don't think it's a grift. You don't need to get money out of this for this to be a plug. Personal satisfaction, pride, whatever. I think it's misguided to offer apps and websites to people complaining about addiction to apps and websites. At the very least shows lack of empathy and a fundamental misunderstanding about the nature of the problem being discussed.

Do what you want with the information that a perfect stranger saw what you did here and was irked.
