the problem with "social media as addiction" is that it has a second layer of addiction for people for whom the addiction isn't social media itself but the friends who are only accessible through the social media. if those people leave the social media they no longer have friends.

@mavica_again Amazingly enough, giving people rewarding and stimulating friendships in real life can completely cure their social media addiction! It's also known to cure addictions to hard drugs, and video games.
