It's Not You, It's the Algorithm

How to Slow Your Scroll and Start Paying Attention to Your Life Again

Beschreibung

Are you tired of watching your life disappear into a scroll? If you've ever felt like your attention is slipping, your energy is scattered, and your days are dictated by timelines you didn't choose, you're not alone. And it's not your fault. It's Not You, It's the Algorithm is a provocative, no-BS exploration of what's really happening to your time, your focus, and your sense of self in the digital age. Written with wit, story, and a punch of irreverence, this book isn't a how-to manual for quitting tech-it's a rally cry for reclaiming your agency while still living in the world. You'll discover: - Why scrolling feels good-until it doesn't - How the subtle design of platforms chips away at your power - What it takes to build a meaningful life when distraction is the default Perfect for smart, curious readers who aren't interested in platitudes or productivity hacks, this book invites you to question what you've accepted-and remember what you're truly capable of. You don't have to delete your accounts to get your life back. But you do have to start paying attention.
