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
If you keep hitting not interested on the shorts, they get temporarily disabled for a while.
Temporarily being the problem there unfortunately
I’m not the kind of person to put up with doing stuff like that repeatedly
You either have to accept that you like watching shorts more than doing other things and watch them without worrying or change your habits. There’s no magical way where you just stop doing it. I will take some effort.
The change in habit unfortunately is just not opening YouTube on my phone, which is a shame because there are good videos that I feel good after watching but I can’t resist getting drawn in by shorts.
Typically I don’t get that problem on PC or on a smart TV because they push long form content more there
