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

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.
