If you could wave a magic wand and give someone a day to do whatever they want to do no one would be choosing chips and TikTok.

I don't think many people really enjoy it. It's just less painful than other things, or they don't have the resources to do what they actually want to do, or their choice requires something that's not possible right now... Chips and TikTok is the fallback, not the first choice.

I wonder why we find life so painful that we find "chips and TikTok" as an acceptable default.

What’s the issue with "chips and TikTok"? It’s virtually free, requires no new equipement and can be done anywhere. Depending on how your feed is curated, you can learn more things in five minutes on TikTok than the same duration on HN or any other website.
