Have you ever got carried away watching YouTube Shorts/TikTok?

Have you ever started watching a short vertical video and then you scroll to the next one, to the next one and it's just a cycle that could go on for minutes, tens of minutes or hours?

I've done that so many times...sometimes on purpose and because I'm bored or I just accidentally get lost in these shorts lol

They're designed to get you to keep scrolling to give channels/accounts more traction who use the Shorts method.

I'm talking YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram/Facebook Reels, Snapchat Spotlight THE WHOLE SHABANG

No, but I've spent hours and hours on full length Youtube videos, just jumping from one recommendation to the next.

So similar thing I guess?

Close enough LOL! I've definitely been down that rabbit hole

i used to do this so often last year i wasn't even paying attention to the videos i just scrolled while coping with existential dread

only with yt shorts tho tiktok is evil

LOL really? I ended up watching every single video. Like for some reason, it doesn't matter how dumb a video is, they end up being no skips for me. Because when they are dumb, I like to read the comments that are so funny and good at roasting the videos lol

And TikTok is evil...I don't have it anymore but when I did have it, I barely used it because I thought some of these challenges were the dumbest ever and I didn't spend enough time on it to get addicted at times lol

However, I was somehow able to keep up with TikTok trends mostly from the kids at my school. I learned the whole Renegade dance while barely even using the app lol

Ah, I do that sometimes too because there are some TikTok trends that are kind of cool. I know that some, they mute the audio to avoid copyright and I try to stay away from those lol
