Manufacturers add fat or sugar to their product to make them more palatable or attractive. Flashy packaging or celebrity endorsement also helps. Social media is similar in many ways. Games, daily challenges, rewards, sense of belonging etc. In both instances you have to recognize what is beneficial to you and at what point is a waste of time or unhealthy. It's hard to do it for adults and it's hard or impossible to do for children and teenagers. Also, as with everything, everyone's experience will be different. In food example, some people can manage their calories better than other. Some are easily addicted or depressed. It's the same with social media or internet content in general.
