ELI5 Mode🧒

A social feed is a dynamic, scrolling stream of content such as posts, updates, photos, and videos from one's connections on platforms like Facebook or Twitter.

Did you know that the average person spends about 2 hours and 27 minutes daily on social feeds, which adds up to over 5 years of their life if continued from age 18? This phenomenon, driven by addictive algorithms, has been linked to 'social media-induced FOMO' (fear of missing out), with studies showing it can alter brain chemistry similarly to how video games do.
