I've come to the same conclusion, especially with HN being a timesuck. Not a bad timesuck, but it very much does contribute to a dopamine feedback addiction loop for me. I'm glad it's here, than, Facebook, but yes. There's also a part of society that does require Facebook and other Meta properties, unfortunately. While I deleted all friends and purged my facebook of real material - I use it for marketplace listings and groups which give it considerable value and insight. I would argue that breaking the loops and addiction is a solid first step, disable notifications and delete the native apps - and apply/increase friction to use the platform e.g. for facebook access it only via the mobile interface.
