I’m sure we should have a name for the phenomenon of how consuming shortform videos (at the frequency and volume as platforms like tiktok or instagram want us to) affects how our brain decides to process info in all other facets of our life.

Idk, like, Doomscrolling Brain sounds like a fad because, imo, not everyone uses the word doomscrolling. Tiktok is pretty much the face of endless scrolling short form vids, and everybody knows what it is. Calling it tiktok brain also puts the onus on the platform subconsciously affecting how we consume information anywhere else.
