Isn't TikTok just Vine or beme redux? ADD-like dopamine- engagement addiction via short video content?

Do we really need more time-suck, content consumption platforms when people are lonelier, more atomized, unwilling/unable to socialize IRL, and divided from each other than ever?

I think there ought to be a two month annual holiday where social media is shutdown to encourage people to go outside and socialize because it won't happen otherwise.
