SCROLL
HAPPIER.

HappyAlgo is a movement to fix a broken internet — for the people scrolling, the creators making it, and the brands funding it.

The state of the feed

6h 51m

The time the average person worldwide now spends looking at a screen every single day — most of it inside algorithmic feeds.

THE PROBLEM

  • Doomscrolling is wasting our lives.
  • Algorithms push what keeps us hooked, not what helps us grow.
  • The incentive to make meaningful, educational and positive content is limited.
  • Mental health is suffering, immensely.

POST-2007

Depression's sharp rise begins post smartphone adoption rise — a correlation echoed across multiple studies.

THE MISSION

WE'RE ON A MISSION.

WHAT WE DO

HappyAlgo connects people with positive creators, ethical brands and practical resources to help build a healthier and happier relationship with algorithms and online content.

A MOVEMENT, AN AGENCY, AND AN APP.

THE MOVEMENTTeaching how algorithms really work, and how to take your attention back.
THE AGENCYRewarding the right creators with real, paid work — matched with brands who genuinely share their values.
THE APPIn development — a genuinely better way to choose what you watch.
THE PROBLEM

Willpower was never the issue.

The feed is designed by thousands of engineers to keep you there. You're not weak, you're outnumbered.

7h+

The average day, gone

Feeds feel good in the moment. That dopamine hit is real, which is exactly why it's so easy to lose hours to content that doesn't teach you anything or leave you better off.

:(

Blocking doesn't work

Blockers fight the symptom. The pull is still there, because nothing better was offered in its place.

?!

Nobody explains it

Schools don't teach it, and the platforms have no reason to. Their business runs on clickbait and controversy, so how feeds really work stays conveniently unexplained.
