for some people, masturbation might be a bigger problem than porn

I tend to disagree, because I did not come from an addiction myself. The reason I have resetted was, that I wanted to and I also did this without any porn/cams.
I do not see much sense in doing "hard mode" generally for itself, if one has arrived already beyond the reboot phase. This permanent prolonged "abstinence" for itself too often lacks purpose and reason to me. It´s an individual question and for myself, I can say that I feel better doing hard mode again now, but that might change over the time. I think it´s important, to set a goal for yourself and lay out the rules, but then also to keep those.
