‘Most users’ will care when they lose all the content they relied on for their late-night doomscrolling.

Before they know it, they'll find themselves in a sea of shit content and ads, and realize what they lost.

I imagine a lot of people just browse All, so they're already there.

I'm assuming most of the doomscrolling content comes from bots. It's all articles with clickbait titles auto-posted by the social media arm of news/blog/journal/etc. sites, then upvoted by bots for visibility to try to lure as many people in as possible for that sweet ad revenue.
