Sure. People can just not do crack. A more like comparison, people could just not scroll through Lemmy or any other infinite scrolling app, but they do because nobody thinks it has any real ramifications.

I think there's something to be said for coercive and manipulative algorithms, definitely. I don't know that simply efficiently looking at the porn you want to look at until you're done edging or you cum or whatever is bad. The less ads, the better as well, because ads are very manipulative and coercive and the point is to reduce that. Having an orgasm is a normal human experience, as is sexual exploration in general. Idk that all porn is perfect or anything, but I do think the antiporn stuff is weirdly sex phobic for no reason.

Just do a little research on infinite scrolling and the psychological effects. It’s addictive and trains your brain.
