Kindof a hard question to answer. I work remotely in software. If I couldn’t use the Internet, I’d have to change fields and start working in person. But is working remotely and writing code for my day job an expression of “addiction”? How about looking up documentation while I’m writing code on my own time? Definitely something I use the Internet for, but I wouldn’t think it’s an “addiction” thing. What about updating the software on my computer? Is finding recipes online “addiction”?
Social media is “addictive”. For sure.
So, I guess if you’re counting everything I use the internet for as “addiction” and asking how well I’d fare (with 100 being extremely poorly), I’d probably have to put it pretty high. Maybe 85 or more?
If you only disallowed uses of the Internet that qualify as “addictive” such as doomscrolling or four-hour-long YouTube in-depth deep dives on invisible walls in Super Mario 64, then I don’t think I’d be really all that bad off. I might put myself at 20.
