Just a few decades ago, the main sources of information were books, newspapers, and television. Today, a person is constantly immersed in a digital stream: messages in messengers, social media feeds, work chats, push notifications, news, videos, and advertising accompany us almost continuously. This state is called digital overload — a situation in which the volume of information exceeds the brain’s ability to process it calmly. It is important to understand that this is not about “unnecessary” information, but about its constant availability and rapid смена, which leaves no time for reflection.
