algo baiting 

The act of falling for algorithmic bait and spiraling into unplanned doomscrolling, pointless replies, or emotional engagement you swore you’d avoid. You came for one thing—now it’s three hours later and you’re arguing with a stranger about toaster settings.

I wasted my whole afternoon on X, algo baiting over some dumb hot take.
