    Needs to be another axis representing how “easy” it is to show if it requires any effort to do

      It’s basically the opposite of addictive. Addictive stuff is easy, because it quickly becomes a “need” not just something you theoretically want to do but can’t really be bothered right now.

      Even ‘fun’ stuff like TV shows, I can ‘want’ to catch up on shows, or finish the series I was loving, but if its down to choosing and making myself get round to it, I won’t. But when suddenly I get a hyper focus on some old show and I binge forty episodes in a weekend it’s ‘easy’. What’s hard is stopping, which I guess means I’m kinda in addict mode (until I overdo it and get board and abandon the watchthrough a few episodes from the end).
