YSK: Flossing your teeth is only uncomfortable when your gums are unhealthy
Healthy gums don’t bleed, and are not painful to floss at all.
I’m in my 30s and only recently learned flossing technique and got my gums healthy. Flossing used to take so long and always involved a lot of bleeding no matter how delicate I was.
These days I’m absolute savage with floss and interdental brushes and never have any blood or pain.
Once you get your gums healthy you’ll be disgusted at yourself for ever not flossing. The amount of disgusting I can floss out on an almost daily basis is insane.
Plus you’re breath will not smell gross anymore.
It’s worth committing to the habit of flossing. Trust me.

I just grab a floss pick, go sit in front of my computer, and floss while distracting myself with something else. That way I don't have to devote any focus or effort to flossing and it goes by much easier.
Same, floss at my desk on autopilot 99% of the time.
Picked up the habit during corona times.
I'm team subconscious flossing as well
I’ve done my best to make flossing with a pick a family affair while watching TV after dinner.
More or less works as routine for SOME PEOPLE who don’t enjoy dental hygiene lol.
