Translation: more and more people overcome their social media addiction and adapt a healthy usage pattern.

That's not really what the article says though. Sounds like people are just doomscrolling curated content instead of creating content themselves.

I dunno. According to the article, "While sharing has tailed off, consuming content hasn't slowed". I didn't read the link that sentence hyperlinked to since it was behind a paywall.
