Very weird article, so he watched like 10 clips and invested 10 minutes and then proceeds to write "what happened when offline person tried tiktok" - how is this even serious? On the other hand 1st paragraph of the article brags about his anti social media stance and how he turned it into sort of side-hustle so probably this article is carefully crafted to be clickbait and at same time not taint anti-social-media-person image.

I feel much more time and effort was put into arranging words(2290 words per `wc -w`) than collecting data or asking actual addicted users

Also I don't agree with people being more tolerant towards individuals who ditched social media. In my social circle, you either can't convince people not to use facebook to send you messages or convincing them will be short-lived. You will look weird and closer people(i.e. friends) will directly ask what's wrong with you
