"getting sun is bad" should be strictly "too much UV exposure over a long period of time is bad" which is currently unambiguously what the evidence demonstrates.
I have also started to avoid sunscreens and wear synthetic fabrics instead which aggressively filter out UV light, or I schedule fewer outdoors-in-direct-sun activities during peak UV hours when I have that option.
* Of course exhausting antioxidant capacity will greatly increase damage at a certain point. I am not exactly sure if UV light can cause single strand breakage by itself, or via ROS, but antioxidants are no "shield" in any case - more like a minefield.

UV light from the sun comes with plenty of red light. UV light from the tanning bed does not have any red light. In the winter I used to go tanning, then would spend 12 minutes in the bright-light room [1].
