The YouTube shorts feature is so unhealthy. I once wasted 4 hours scrolling(*). It's so useless, most of the channels you are subbed to don't upload those anyway so you are fed whatever YouTube wants.

(*) (I obviously uninstalled the app after that. I hate smartphones, I hate smartphones, I hate smarphones)

I hate smartphones! I hate being reachable at all hours! I hate always being connected!

I just want to be left alone! I want to return to dedicated devices: computers for communicating and the like, and music players for music!

I wouldn't hate them if companies weren't investing millions of dollars on making them more and more addictive. I love that I can listen to an audiobook on my commute, record my lectures, read electronic versions of my textbooks in class and pay for my food, all with one little portable device.

Only capitalism could ruin such a useful tool.

All I wanna do is live my life but companies want us to consume mindnumbing online content and pay subscriptions, how can I not hate what smartphones have become.
