The European Commission told TikTok to “change several key features, including disabling infinite scrolling, setting strict screen time breaks and changing its recommender systems. The demand follows the Commission's declaration that TikTok’s design is addictive to users.”

Now do the same for the US services!

@parismarx But infinite scrolling is really nothing new or unique to TikTok. Here on Mastodon I can scroll infinitely. On Youtube, too. 🤷

God help us, I hope the EU doesn't discover the infinite scrolling through cat pictures here on the Fediverse.
