I’ve noticed YouTube specifically has become more addictive, I never used to be one to sit and scroll for long durations before but I often catch myself spending way too long on shorts now
Even people or older generations seem to be getting sucked in nowadays

For me it’s certainly the short form content, as I’ve found myself getting hooked on it on PC to the point I have to snap out of it and instantly close the tab once I realise what’s happening. This isn’t happening with my normal subscription feed, because it’s not a never ending stream of content.

Okay, I’ve turned it on and this was the first short to appear.
I’m gonna be honest, it’s not making a difference for me personally. If anything I think I’m staring at it more now because I feel like I can see more details in the videos.

Giving the gray-scale thing a try, I think the thing that sets modern short form content apart is how fast, snappy and easy to scroll it is though
Rarely have more than half a second of downtime between shorts, I think that is the issue recently
