When you are scrolling instagram reels, tiktok or other short term video formats in a relaxed state of mind. You sometimes watch entire videos without knowing why and while being uninterested. You click on profiles and scroll through feeds without any clear reason. The most relaxed type of scrolling, and is the opposite of hard scrolling.

Get the soft scrollingmug. Scrolling instagram reels, tiktok or other social media platform in a selective and non-time wasting manner, often with a maximum of three second per video to interest you before you decide to scroll to the next one. This method is used to browse reels and tiktoks in the most effective and least time consuming way.
