My wife shows me wayyyy more videos on her phone than I show her on mine

Most of the stuff I share is still images/comics/gifs etc

Same. It takes a very special video to get me to turn my sound on. Definitely more of a static content feller

Mine shares reels, every 19 seconds she has something new to show.

I try to share useful information from youtube but she doesn't have the attention span to watch them anymore.

So it's a one way road and i'm trying my best to just nod and smile at the reels while keeping focus on the information i'm trying to contain from the long form video. It's a bloody warzone sometimes, "hey, look haha. Hey, look haha. Hey, look haha"...can you give me 10 minutes please? And then she's pissed at me.

Short form content...i want my old wife back, can you please remove yourself from existence. You ruined her.

Mine even acknowledges that I hate tik tok videos while shoving them in my face. And when I'm not being shown videos, I'm getting filled in on some petty drama that no one should give a fuck about.

The app has turned her into an extremely negative person.
