Books

"Scrolling social media makes it harder to read books because it trains your brain to discard previous context in order to understand the next thing, whereas understanding the next thing in a book requires retaining previous context." 

just saw this on X. link below.

I'd agree with this. Social media is just a bombardment of different messages in the matter of a few seconds. There's no story you need to follow really. Plus its also trained people not to have an attention span over a minute, especially when it comes to reading words - i've noticed how so many people don't even read longer posts- so books are out of the question.

100% right. 

it happened to me and i had to slowly wean myself off of instagram reels. 

my attention span was like that of a fly. lol.

I got lucky like that. I was living in a place with barely any network for like 3-4 years when reels and shorts became a thing, so i never really got into it🤣
