I’m with you, having quit social media some 10 years ago. That said, not everybody has the ability to exercise their agency. In this social media addiction isn’t much different from any other addiction. Many folks find themselves incapable of making a change here, while some like you (and myself) simply decided one day. Same goes for a lot of other things. I quit drinking alcohol because I saw it as a negative in my life. Other things have been much, much harder for me.
