When social media sharing becomes a source of relationship tension

My girlfriend gets really upset when I don't immediately watch the TikToks she sends me but I feel overwhelmed by the constant stream and I don't know how to tell her that sharing everything isn't connecting for me. We're using social media to connect but it's driving us apart.
