Digital well-being is a hot topic these days. Social networks are getting inventive as they seek ways to improve the experience of their users and, at the same time, polish up their reputations. Meta and TikTok are no exception; both have recently unveiled new tools to help users better manage their social network use and be fully aware of every aspect of the issue.
Since the Covid-19 pandemic, the time we spend in front of screens has significantly increased. And the consequence has been an amplification of the angst felt by many, particularly among young social network users. TikTok, a firm favourite of these younger generations, is taking steps to give its users more tools to better manage and understand the stakes of their online presence. The aim is to make Internet users more responsible and proactive when it comes to managing this aspect of their life.
