I’m the kinda of person that struggles a bit with addiction.
I have to wonder how much that contributes to me using garbage content generation machines like Xitter, but also all the other hateful, ...
Man, I don't think you're that special.
I think everyone has a vice, something used to cope with the pain of physical reality.
These vices vary in their compulsiveness & destructive nature. Some may not even consider them vices, eg exercise, romance novels, cigarettes, cannabis, alcohol, caffeine, sex, chocolate, Twitter, etc.
I like to choose my vices rather than have them sneak in through the back door (eg doom scrolling).
