Is that where the downvotes come from? People feeling criticized? If so, please criticize me. I feel weak spending time on LinkedIn or on my smartphone for that matter. I’m disgusted by my weakness when I see my weekly iOS screentime report. The struggle is real, help me make myself a better human. Criticize me.
Well if you're being serious and truly feel bad about yourself for a habit it would be better to talk to a friend, family member, or therapist to get support for changing the habit. Linkedin is worthless but no one should be made to feel bad for using a web site or for playing games.
I think you should. We make people feel bad for fleeing into drugs right? For gambling? We tell our kids it's bad.
But it's ok to get the same hits from a website that does everything in its power to keep your eyeballs glued to it? Like a slotmachine keeps you pulling that lever? Like heroine keeps you hunting for that next hit?
We're better off without it. We're better off telling each other it's bad.
