Yeah that's exactly the case. The effect of social media can't be denied. They call it "cheap dopamine" for the brain, since it's hijacking our attention and behavior, changing our action to concentrate less and getting addicted to it with a flood of information.

You can also spread it to other things. A bunch of unwatched movies, undone things to do, a slew of things waiting to be experienced.

IMO LinkedIn is a garbage for mental health, too. Where everyone wants to show off their achievements to others.
