So what’s the actual solution to social media, or society’s tech addiction in general

I know banning TikTok was not going to solve it, but the implication here is that, if 1 app can’t be banned, then government intervention into one of the worst public health crises in our country (imo) is not going to happen at least for a long time.

I don’t care how cliche it sounds: social media, online content, consuming information at a rate that is impossible to process, atomization, declining attention spans and cognition, this stuff is just not something we’ve dealt with before. In the late 2000s we all started to have computers in our pockets and it’s insane. The changes have been so drastic and nobody has even caught their breath

Seems like the only solution is to worry about yourself and in 10 years when tech addiction has infected everyone, not just losers, your life will be considered monastic by most standards.

Anyway I know this is a poorly organized post. I’m in a hurry because I want to post this and log off
