I don’t actually use TikTok or even the “sliding” function on youtube shorts, but I feel like my attention span has gotten much worse after they started getting popular. Even watching a 2 minute video feels dreadfully long, let alone a 10 or 20 minute video, so I end up watching a mostly short animation memes instead.

      You called yourself a senior. I’m in my early 40s, so I doubt it. Engagement tricks that used ti work in the past don’t seem to work anymore. That’s the problem.
