Contentless

/kənˈtɛntləs/ adjective

Definition

Lacking content, substance, or meaningful material; empty or void of significance.

Etymology

From 'content' (meaning substance or material) plus -less (a suffix meaning 'without'). This creates the opposite of 'contentful.'

Kelly Says

Social media is sometimes criticized for being 'contentless'—lots of posts and videos, but lacking real substance or meaning, like eating popcorn: it fills you up temporarily but provides no real nutrition.
