All "agreement bubble" and privacy concerns aside, I strongly suspect that my use of social media was making me worse at reading. I think I was getting conditioned to only being able to absorb information in "post"-sized snippets. I was starting to struggle with maintaining focus for the time required to read books and long-form articles. Reading is one of most important things in my life and the possibility that my brain was changing to prevent me from doing it for extended periods really scared the shit out of me.
