We crave for a dopamine hit.

We try to get it often.

We get addicted to it.

According to a recent research, our attention span has decreased to mere 8 seconds.

Our attention generates our user data and the companies mine that data for $$

Our attention is everything. Given our current attention spans, the platforms like TikTok, Reels, Shorts have spread like a virus.

Noone is talking about this pandemic. No discussion, no mention, nothing.

Just like drug de-addiction and rehabilitation centres, we would be needing social media de-addiction centres in every nook and corner in very near future.

A healthy and constructive discussion is required.

What do you think about it? Do you agree that scrolling is the new smoking?
