selfhifive··on Ask HN: Have you accepted the TOS that give FB access to your WhatsApp data?
The new TOS didn't really change much for one to one conversation but it exposed the previous TOS when people started comparing clauses and actually read it. I accepted the terms and use WhatsApp if I absolutely have to. No personal stuff there. They still have my metadata but I've tried to give them as little data as possible. No status and no profile photo. No Google drive backups.

Your memories are inaccurate and you can't predict the future so the only thing you can be sure of is the present.

That is the whole point of it. To fight against the dopamine saturation to enjoy everyday pleasures.
selfhifive··on Dopamine Fasting: A Maladaptive Fad (2020)
Dopamine fasting is not for hitting a dopamine zero. It is just to reset the system to its natural state so that it reacts to normal levels of dopamine.
