1. I don't think banning having an account is the problem. TikTok, YouTube, Facebook watch etc. can be used anonymously. The things that need accounts are probably less bad.
2. I think we need a better term than "social media". I suspect it's mostly not the "social" side that are causing mental health problems, it's the celeb / influencer / brands that are the problem. Maybe we need a social network where all messages disappear after more than 10 people read them or something.
