I mean sure, if I want to cut communication with half my friends.

We don't live in an ideal bubble where I have full control over the tools I use. Its the same argument people make for video game moderation "if you don't like it, turn off chat" but then you're self-isolating.

Point is, this is a social problem.

I think that’s a view from inside the bubble. It’s a sort of addiction. Switching it off is not going to have the ostracising effect one might fear.
