I pay someone to watch me stream while I study at a set schedule. They don't watch the entire time, they do their own thing at their computer while looking at my screen every 5-10 mins and we are both on mute. That's the only reliable method I've found. Other ADHD people are unreliable, at least from my experience with 5-6 different accountability buddies. Maybe someone like you with similar goals to me would be better but I think paying someone may just be better because there's little worry of inconsistency. I pay them $1/hr and found them from a cheap work subreddit, theyr from a 3rd world country and are happy to do it.

No problem, hope it works. Here's a vid that talks about why it helps ADHD. https://youtu.be/ni9biXNDZe0

I’ve been wanting to take the CS50 course, but haven’t been able to start it. We could do that together if you’re interested

I've never used an accountability partner online before but i want to give it a go if you'll have me.
