  that requires effort to move away from platforms that force you to doomscroll with their algorithm. For many people that is very strong chain. If you relinquish your mind its not easy to even see the reason to take it back on your own.

    it requires effort for sure, but even if you don’t want to permanently do it, just spend like a week, without using tiktok or something.

    It’s worth it. At least let yourself understand both worlds fully.

      the problem with this is that A LOT of people needs to do it. Personally I dont have any problems with trying to maintain my sanity by not reading about awful things or by treating tiktok like the plague it is. But so many are basically addicts and dont even want to hear anything about changing what they do or just plain dont care what you say to them.

        yeah, and they should, it’s worth the time investment, or in this case, time gain.
