You needn't shill for big tech companies; on the contrary, good and sensible regulation has been eroded by all the lobbying efforts these monopolists have done and the pressure of the faux-conservatives that portray themselves as victims of persecution against their free speech rights (when they had been correctly flagged as posting harmful content or hoaxes [0]).

But if Facebook made feed less addictive, would not it become more boring and hard-working Joe would not be able to have a rest after a working day?

There are a couple of fallacies you've managed to bundle there:

1. Doomscrolling Facebook/Instagram is not equivalent to rest

2. Although rest is a good reward for a hard day's work, you're conflating Social Media Usage with resting, which has been proven to be detrimental to overall well-being [0], and associated with poor sleep quality (i.e. detrimental to rest).

3. You were saying that addiction was a user problem, but now you're acknowledging the addictiveness of the platform

Your response may have been facetious and sarcastic, but your previous replies suggest that that wasn't the case.
