Sounds like a pr campaign
No. I’m asking questions about the research you’re referencing. Nothing more.
I mean achievement as something that’s perceived by society, something that you don’t do for enjoyment, something to profit off of in some way (be it simple recognition or raised social status), “I will do this because people will also see it and that’s very good”. It can be the expectations of relatives, workplace, college, or you’re just doing something for the workplace or college.
I’m asking because I cannot imagine what hobbies/activities outside of performing for somebody can be negatively affected by short attention span. It’s not your problem that people are just boring and don’t treat you like a god damn human (workplace that requires you to sit and sign documents for 12 whole hours with little to no breaks, or endless inefficient meetings, for example)
The point was people are always looking for a scapegoat when they don’t understand shit. I’m not the one to “learn to read”
Edit: what the hell is that username
Also no. Addiction happens exactly when the needs are met more than usual, hence “social media addiction”, and it’s not the social media’s fault, it’s not “TikTok Instagram bad”. It’s weaponized misconceptions about mental health that are creating this issue in the first place
Edit: PSA - more than usual does not mean enough
Did I say that it does meet needs long term? What was the sample? What was the methodology? What communities were they participating in? How were they participating? What were the needs? Did they have a neurodivergency? What were their surroundings like? What was their childhood like? Do they go to therapy? What therapeutic practice did they do in therapy?
Do you know anything about the reward system and addiction apart from the words “serotonin” and “dopamine”? /gen
What situations your short attention span makes uncomfortable for you apart from things related to some sort of achievement (as perceived by your workplace, school, family, friends, etc)
Such generalizing statements are blatantly untrue, hypocritical, and harmful. People don’t use social media without a reason. Everything a human does is meet their needs, both psychological and physiological. When humans resort to social media it means they resort to social interaction and whatever other needs they may have like having feelings validated, visual/audio/etc. stimulation, but that doesn’t sound sensational enough, that’s not enough to scapegoat a group of people
Pinpoint the exact string of words where that was conveyed by op
They were making a typical “TikTok bad brain rot user stupid cringe natural selection🤓☝️” “joke”. Don’t bother explaining that to them because they don’t care
Everything you’re told in this thread + they put ads into their “apology” video
I’m sure a couple hundred thousands accounts blocked Elon and now he’s salty lmao
I don’t understand how he’s still the president with how y’all protest sometimes
It allows third party apps to know how much of the back gestures was performed and do an animation that is controlled by your finger or other action based on it. Imo ideally it should look something like opening a post on Instagram - a fancy expansion/collapse animation (except the app can also know which side you’re swiping from)
Predictive gestures still in developer options?
Plain brainwashing. They’re used to being coerced into believing stuff by fear mongering
Idk but the title sounds like it without generate a bunch of clicks🥰
