In big cities like NYC people get sunlight during
their commute
Perhaps you have only seen NYC in movies. You can spend a lot of time commuting in NYC without any direct sunlight hitting your skin whatsoever.
Not sure when you think they're soaking up all this sunlight. Sitting in a train car? ...that's underground? Or inside a bus? Or is it when they are walking between tall buildings?
New Yorkers are not exactly known for their tans, even in summertime.
but get no sunlight when cooped up in a small apartment
You were not forced to stay in your apartment, even in NYC. You were always allowed to leave. Of course, most businesses are/were closed, but you are/were certainly allowed to walk around. Many people also have access to their apartment rooftops.
Perhaps more relevantly, of course, most Americans do not live in places like NYC where they have difficulty accessing sources of sunlight. I live in a suburb of a different American city and we are getting much more sunlight during quarantine. It's much easier to take walks and sunlight breaks during the daytime.
