Why does TikTok keep pulling me away from gaming
Every time I want to game, I end up opening short video apps instead — and it’s not even intentional. I tell myself I’ll scroll for “just a minute,” but then it’s been 40 minutes and I don’t even feel like gaming anymore. This post explained the pull really well: https://bollywoodcelebnetworth.in/2025/06/19/how-mobile-games-compete-against-tiktok-for-your-screen-time/. Anyone else feel this way?

It’s crazy how powerful that algorithm is. I can open the app with zero intention to stay long, and suddenly I’m deep in random videos. Then when I try to play something, I feel distracted or bored. I think these apps rewired how we consume content. Might need to uninstall for a bit just to get my attention span back.
