Interesting. Deep down we all know it, and we still spend countless hours here in the internet.

No, it just looks that way for me because I stay signed in on CI.  I am on YouTube a lot, but it’s for music, background noise for sleep, bird and cat sounds when I’m not home all day for my cat, sermons, conferences, prayers while doing other activities, no different than if on a radio, CD, cassette, or record player.  As for “surfing” or “gaming,” like kids and even full grown adults in some cases, no. I may skim through recommended YouTubes, rarely saving any to watch later, and as for video games, I don’t play them, don’t even know what’s popular, have no interest in them except maybe solitaire if I’m waiting in a doctor’s office or sick, bored, too sick to engage the brain, but not too sick to do nothing and I can’t sleep.
