Has any research been done on the health and psychological effects of vaping? Inhaling lungfuls of vapour on a regular seems risky to me, containing nicotine could mean they're addictive:

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Not all vapes contain nicotine but the ones that do will be addictive. It will be decades until the long term effects of vaping is known but there is already concern about popcorn lung
Other reports claim vaping does not cause popcorn lung.
I was surprised to see an advert for XQS on TV yesterday (I may have been watching YouTube), a brand of white snus. This is also a health crisis in the making and is becoming popular with young people
As you say, most people drink alcohol. Many of them drink occasionally, many drinks within limits.
Most people who drink alcohol aren't harmed by not harm other people.
Alcohol in moderation can be beneficial.
None of the above is true for smoking and time will tell about the long term health effects of vaping and snus.
Many institutes and bodies state that moderate amounts of alcohol is beneficial, such as this one

Meanwhile if vaping was so good at stopping smoking habits that it is preferable to other means then it could be put on prescription for the duration of the course.
For the general public recreational vaping is simply an antisocial behavour that unscrupulous companies saw as a way to make a fortune from when society finally started clamping down on smoking. It shouldn't have been allowed, it took long enough to restrict smoking, but like so many things these days (such as scooters and overpowered cycles on roads) it was allowed by government that doesn't give a darn about the people or the society it's actions and inactions are creating.
we've snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. We got shot of the disgusting habit of smoking only to replace it with something just as bad. The innevitable comparison with alcohol of course emerges but the main difference is that I don't go around pouring a pint of stella down the throats of strangers. ....and before 10cs pipes up with his usual "passive smoking is harmless" routine, I don't care if it's harmless I don't want to smell it, ditto whatever sheet they are vaping.
Passive smoking is harmless. It never made anyone ill. Some people have allergies to various things. Smoking is one of them. But there's no doubt it does make your clothes stink.
The effects of alcohol far outweigh the effects of smoking. Domestic violence; town centre violence; after hours violence; death on the roads; absenteeism. None of those can be attributed to smoking, so just think about that while you have your next glass of wine. And the next. And the next. And........
