my only nitpick is - if social media were truly a drug, as some suggest, studies asking participants to reduce time on it wouldn't work because of addiction. how do we counter this?
Gambling, cigarette, alcohol, weed, cocaine or social media can all potentially get you addicted. It doesn't mean that on a random sample, most people cannot reduce their consumption. It depends of how hooked you are.
Not all drugs are addictive and some are more addictive than others.
