> I don't think there is a fix really.

Maybe not a "fix" per se, but one big step could be a ban on infini-scrolling in websites. I think having to click on "page 2," scroll to the bottom of the page again, click on "page 3," etc, would introduce enough friction to get people to stop a little earlier.

(My own personal rule on Hacker News is that I never go deeper than page 2. That helps me not spend all day on HN) ;-)
