Unpopular opinion, but I don't think Tiktok addiction is any worse than videogame addiction. And I say this as someone that plays games(responsibly) and doesn't really use Tiktok(I only look at videos my friend sends me)

I know a LOT of people my age that let videogames get in the way of their responsibilities. It's a big contributor to the declining labor force participation rate in young men and poor academic outcomes.

Tiktok isn't really any worse than any other social media. Like why is it wrong for people to spend an hour a day on TikTok, but okay for people to spend all day on Reddit/YouTube?
