> to scroll and learn things

Maybe you can approach this a bit differently, it sounds like you are looking for another place to waste your time without learning anything.

Learning doesn't happen by scrolling.

Counterpoint: you don't know what you don't know.

When scrolling Hackernews, intriguing topics abound that I never thought about before, much less even asked myself the question about. And I read the comments and become interested in a new area.

Counter-counterpoint: attention moves to something else before much learning was performed...

I would use the term "reading" than "scrolling" though. Scrolling implies that you don't really care much about anything and just mindlessly consume content.

Agreed. There's value in being attuned to what's there. It's breadth-first learning.
