I was listening to a podcast (informal morning show from one of the guys who founded roosterteeth) and he talked about how he got off Twitter and Facebook and everything well before the pandemic… but has been needing to get back on them just to connect with others in his community.



Thats not the point of it, just how it works when faced with reality. The point of it is for the citizens to exercise their collective will to make their community better.
The problem is people are either disconnected or ill-informed, so at best we get stop-gaps to keep nefariousness at bay.
