Agree that this insight is well expressed. Helps me understand more why auto play is probably more important and powerful on junk-social-media platforms.
On Netflix, auto-play is just pulling forward what you would probably watch later. On TikTok and Facebook, you’re autoplaying and auto-opting into a class of content you normally would retreat from.
