I know staying up past bedtime is illegal but I did it once to check and fortnite was in fact off 😔

Truly terrible news

    Easiest way to do this: Turn the modem off after bed time (you will also lose internet)

    Most expensive but still easy way to do this: Buy a “smart router” with time-based parental controls (lets you use the internet at night).

    Nerd way to do this: Pihole with a script that enables and disables certain blocklists at certain times (free and open source, because fuck “smart” products)

      Cheaper alternative: flash existing router with DD-WRT or OpenWRT and access advanced features for free.

          Yeah, but as a true nerd i wont be using my old pi 3 to do that.

          The poor bastard is strugling to keep home assintant alive. Better buy a new router WRT compatible.
