It isn't FOMO, it is just that the real world is boring since nothing happens without a lot of effort. From a computer you can go and see what most parts of the world looks like via Google maps, play any game, watch people do anything you can think about on youtube etc, all with no effort from you. It is very hard for reality to compete with that.

For me it isn't the world is boring, it's just horribly painful all the time. So I numb myself in tech instead of trying to deal with it.

It's not productive to my happiness or sustainable, yet here I am just waiting it out.
