Haven't you gone on to prove yourself wrong by mentioning food diets? Many/most of which are not quitting something cold turkey?

Unless you're going to tell me that e.g. 'intermittent fasting' is quitting eating on Wednesdays or 0000-2200h cold turkey, like that was the addiction.

People on food diets quit the unhealthy foods in a “cold turkey” way.

Many of us have no issue eating the occasional nacho or chocolate cake or drinking a coke here and there. Other people do have issues controlling their intake of these junk foods. I meant that people quit the junk food “cold turkey.”

So the digital analogue is quitting the “junk apps” in a cold turkey kind of way….
