The whole point is that these services use psychological tactics to make it hard to "stop giving a shit about engagement." Your brain gets addicted to all the little dopamine hits you get from using them, so when you try to just stop using them, it's a bit like going cold turkey. Your brain has to adjust to not getting that constant dopamine drip-feed anymore.
