Information, like fast food, is easy and cheap to produce today, mostly horrible for long-term health

Worse, I fear most info increases our confidence in decisions while reducing critical thinking

At this point, I'm very selective about my media diet. There are only a handful of sources I read weekly (https://every.to/, https://www.productlessons.xyz/, https://www.collaborativefund.com/blog/); all my other free time is spent on hobbies I enjoy

Agreed. But there are sooo many good, high-quality contents as well!

It's very hard to make a choice and stand by it.
