mf2 reviewed The Distraction Addiction by Alex Soojung-Kim Pang
Waste
1 star
The tagline promises "getting the information you need and the communication you want, without enraging your family, annoying your colleagues, and destroying your soul", but the book offers no information on how to do that, except for the no-brainer things like blocking addictive websites or "being mindful" on how you use the internet.
What I hoped for was information on how I can e.g. follow certain subreddits without falling into rabbitholes of doomscrolling - because they do contain useful information sometimes. Instead, I got platitudes and non-helpful rambling.
