/lit users spend more time on /lit than they spend reading. We need to change that. Roll for how many pages you’re going to read before bedtime.

I unironically believe this. There was a study on the "welfare effects of social media" in 2018, called exactly that, noting an increase in reported well-being when deactivating a social media. I envy my parents' generation in which they were free of this mind-poison.

You're implying that you are forced to take this "mind-poison" while nobody is. It is the goal of social media to make you think that you need it. When you delete your facebook account, facebook shows pictures of the people that "are gonna miss you". That's just them trying to trick you into believing that real social contact can be had trough their platform, which is false. If you delete your social media account and stop taking this poison, you will see how lonely people actually are. Also, our parent's generation is equally addicted, if not more, to shit like facebook. I think (and hope) young people will actually take the initiative in doing away with this cancer.

I firmly believe it can be repaired
Last summer I tried waking up early and limiting Internet browsing to 2-3 hours a day, doing more reading and schoolwork instead. I though that I won't make it when I tried it first but it slowly became easier and easier until I felt almost no need of picking up my phone just to waste time on it.
I've since spoiled the whole thing and now I'm back to 0 but it is possible if you want to.
