I knew I wouldn’t be the only one. Now I just have to hold off checking it for 30 days.

Thanks for your concern, let me rassure you I can quit whenever I want to. No wait that all keep sound wrong. I want not a big user anyway went went 2 or 3 times a week for maybe 30 minutes. It’s been off my phone for a very longtime. The two main attraction were the short clips, but watch one with a pretty woman and that all your get, very quickly and then turn creepy real fast. Disgusting me. Reason one. Second attraction was my activist budy being smartass and commenting replying to morons in vain. Not only will he not fix anything, he doesn’t seem to realize he’s actually feeding the beast with smug. And that lost its appeal too.
