I mean, sure. It’s easier to do it on them since they usually have a lot of open source apps that allow disabling infinite scroll. I believe it’d be easier for the EU to regulate the major platforms because the number of platforms would be just a handful, which is easier to enforce.
I use the lemmy web because it doesn’t have infinite scroll, and the version 1.0.0 will allow to select the number of posts the user wishes to see on his feed. Looks pretty cool, you can see here: voyager.lemmy.ml
I’m not the person you asked, but I would be totally fine with that. Being forced to click a Next button is a small price to pay to stop social media platforms that thrive on a continuous stream of ragebait and bad news (or other content feeds crafted to grab your attention).
The platforms that will be hurt the most won’t be the ones on the Fediverse.
You want to end it on Fediverse apps too, right? Riiight?
Can’t have infinite scroll when you run out of content to scroll through. /s
