#Reels served in #infinite #scrolling powered by #algorithms are the #opium of the century.

A tax should be imposed, as with #alcohol and legalized #drugs .

Additionally, #social service providers using #algorithms should be required to provide users with #data and access to the #algorithm (even without disclosing weights\source code) so that users can effectively test for #bias.

The Infinite Scroll: By removing natural stopping points (like pagination or "end of page" markers), the interface creates a state of continuous cognitive suspension. The brain never receives the cue to pause and evaluate the passage of time.

Why Keyboard Users Can't Scroll Your Overflow Containers | CSS-Tricks

When a keyboard user Tabs into the table, its focus lands on a cell. Then they press the arrow keys to read across the row but nothing happens. Your screen reader users never noticed because they navigate the accessibility tree, not the scroll container.

Pagina de Psihologie May 8

Te uiți „cinci minute“ pe telefon și, fără să-ți dai seama, trece aproape o oră? 📱

Scrolling-ul infinit nu ține doar de voință. Creierul tău este antrenat să caute următoarea recompensă, prin dopamină, anticipare și mecanisme psihologice atent exploatate de social media.

Pe Pagina de Psihologie vorbim despre:
• de ce nu te poți opri din scrolling
• ce se întâmplă în creierul tău
• cum îți poți recâștiga atenția
