Very true, but HN has a hard limit on how much time I will spend here. A few stories on the main page plus sometimes comments, and that's it for the day. Social media is designed to eliminate that limit, I used to be able to spend an entire day scrolling Twitter.
I'm fine with HN personally because there is no infinite scrolling, plus a significant number of the posts/comments here teach me something new every day.
Everytime there's some article about Netflix, Facebook, or the like there's a bunch of people telling everyone they quit and how their life is better, etc.
Many times the article isn't even about quitting social media, just some controversy. I wonder if some percentage of those people are right-wing and wait for a chance to jump in so they can harm companies they disagree with.
I love how it has become a right-wing thing to hate corporations. Those poor left-wing global megacorps, constantly attacked by the evil anti-corporate right.
