Sort of like when people have the TV on at all times to not feel alone.

But isn't that just masking the symptoms of deeper issues regarding self-imposed isolation?

Maybe it does mask it as you say but it also offers tangible benefits. Having a stream on my TV at all times while I'm awake definitely helped me feel almost no loneliness.
