How do you stop yourself from collecting tools instead of actually using them?

First post here. I've been browsing Product Hunt for a while without an account and finally made one.

I have a problem I suspect some of you share. I keep finding tools, signing up, and then never really using them. Not because they're bad, but because trying something new feels like progress, and then the actual using part never happens. My bookmarks and saved posts are full of things I was definitely going to start using. I opened maybe three of them again.

Meanwhile the tools I actually rely on are a short list I barely think about. Everything else is just sitting there, and I keep adding to it.

I know the obvious answer is to stop browsing and just use what I have, but that's easier said than done when the next interesting thing is one scroll away.

Curious how other people deal with this. Do you have a rule for when something gets to stay, or do you just let the pile grow? And has anyone actually cut down and noticed a difference, or is collecting tools just part of the hobby?
