ADD is no longer used, it is called ADHD inattentive type nowadays. I have it. And I didn't get it from short form videos.
Short form videos are terrible for concentration and focus, yes. But ADHD (both hyperactive and inattentive varieties) involves much more than just "haha look a butterfly," and reducing it to simply that is absurd.
Well, duh. You're born with ADHD.
Shorts are absolutely toxic for my ADHD riddled brain. I disable them completely in YouTube and don't use any of the other shitty platforms. Fuck shorts.
