Back in the day, introducing video posts destroyed facebook, a friends chatter platform, slowly but surely. Same fate with instagram, a photography/memory platform, getting into reels and videos.

Now if I go to reddit once a month to check in what the vibe is since my "detox" I realized.

Its all designed to drain. Drain your energy, your free thought, your long term happiness. Like not even hyperbolic, this is really scary.

And we all know thanks to the c/reddit community here on lemmy: Its full of this hidden but omniprersent corpo shilling, ads and corpo censoring.

I havent seen posts with build-in player feature, like the ones that encourage uncoscious behaviour as in the examples mentioned, does that make sense?

Ahh, I see. Yeah, the web interface doesn't have that, but many apps for Lemmy do.
