      Good luck with that. People always say they're going to leave twitter/X. But they come back. Like they're addicted to it.

        I don't know what purpose "Like" serves in the last sentence. They're clearly addicted to it. And not some watered down version of addiction. Some are just as addicted to that form of social media as drug addicts are to opiates or amphetamines. It's become a chemical addiction but their withdrawal symptoms are only mentally observable.
