I think a lot has changed since Tim wrote that book, but a low-information diet is always wise to minimize distractions.

I find it hard to stop reading HN or getting news from my twitter feed. You can try the Hacker Newsletter for the first case: https://hackernewsletter.com/

For Twitter since it's mostly fluff, I just delete the app and restrain myself from touching the web at high demand times. Probably people do the same when they close facebook.

You could also leave your favorite sites in a bookmarks folder, then consult them all just once a week for an hour or so, on weekends or any downtime. A set, scheduled, timeboxed one of course.
