Maybe if they focused on the root of the problems with Social Media instead of banning it from children, they could make the world a better place for everyone.

Endless scrolling and their recommendation algorithms keep people on their platforms for far longer than otherwise intended. They could start with forcing these companies to have chronological posts with a fixed number of posts per page to give users a natural break point for when to stop.

They can still access social media. They just can't have accounts.

Which does mean they can't access a lot of adult content. So there's that.

You don't need an account for 4chan anyways. My point is that no social media accounts means nsfw posts on twitter, reddit, youtube are harder to access.
