It appears screentime or social media interactions, so to put it, isn't a suitable substitute.
It definitely isn't. It is like drinking a can of orange flavoured soda to get vitamin-c.
But the fact is that people are attached to social media interactions because it provides more emotional pleasure and joy than interacting with people in real life.
Funny isn't it? Personally, I would rather interact with humans, than a screen. Much more fun in bed too.
