I'm quickly becoming onboard with treating social media like smoking, drinking, or doing drugs. It has problems, it harms others, and its bad for your health.

If people like the U.S. Surgeon General (Vice Admiral Vivek Murthy) are advocating for it, and CPHO of Canada, Theresa Tam have raised numerous flags about it, then it might be wise to start listening to health experts.

You do realize while a relatively small in scale form of social media, that the platform you are currently posting on is by definition - social media?
