The fact that you unironically used the term 'gender ideology ' proves that you are, in fact, a bigoted little shit.

I don't think there's actually any evidence that short-form content reduces people's attention spans.

Cool, that kinda looks like vivaldi except based on firefox.

I looked at their twitter and their latest tweet was a quote tweet boosting an account widely known as an anti-lgbt hate group. They're absolutely disgusting.

Now that's just uncalled for.

Drown in rain. I'm too big for the shelters.

Doesn't mean it's caused by short-form content. It's kinda annoying seeing that repeated everywhere without evidence imo.

I use Obsidian with the Kanban plugin to organize my personal projects, and sticky notes on my wall for other things.

Yeah, if all these apps are gonna use a common framework we might as well let the operating system handle it.

It looks like that study checked the effects of short-form content addiction, rather than short-form content in general. Addiction can be caused by underlying factors, such as stress or depression, which are shown to reduce attention span so I don't think it really shows a direct causal connection. In fact, I think it's more accurate to say short attention spans cause short-form content rather than the other way around.

That said, excessive social media consumption can make stress and depression worse, I just think we're focussing on the wrong aspect of social media's effect on our mental health.

I'm so glad I figured out how to stop playing.

The blockchain, NFT and AI hypes suggest otherwise.

I think the inner monologue is more there to "support" the processing of information rather than being filtered through it entirely.

No need to be toxic about it. Do you think anyone who disagrees with you is automatically an asshole?

Other than that, there's plenty that's changed other than the existence of short-form content, with everything going on in the world right now people are more stressed than ever. And stress is definitely one thing that reduces attention spans.

Not saying that that is the solution but it's definitely one explanation and in my view it's more likely than what's basically just the equivalent of 'phone bad'.

I'm not a vegetarian by any stretch but even I know there's nothing natural about how the bio industry works.

Seconding 'not manjaro', I'm currently using it and I'm probably going to start fresh on another distro soon.

People might've grumbled a bit (me included) but it wouldn't have led to the massive blackouts we have now.
