My ex was super depressed. Long story short she was struggling with sexuality. I watched her spend literal hours on the couch scrolling insta. She got deep into Reels and would watch them all day. The algorithm is so addicting. It kept her eyes glued. She also ended up down the self diagnosed rabbit hole deciding she had all sorts of mental illness. It was awful.
I only have an Instagram account to follow when special beers are released by a local brewery. That’s their only method of communication, which is annoying.
I have found myself on IG watching skateboarding or cliff diving videos for 15 or 20 minutes before catching myself. It’s crazy how addicting it can be. I’m not doom scrolling or even researching a hobby I often do. I just find those videos fascinating, and it keeps feeding that to me. I just don’t open IG anymore.

I recommend imginn for checking instagram via a browser. I use it for basically the same reason, checking on local businesses.
