> I feel like in 50 years we'll look back and realize that the loss of frequent, face-to-face, in-person human contact has caused immeasurable damage, along the lines of how we've realized highly processed foods and have caused a health and obesity epidemic. But I suppose it will get worse before it gets better.

Or it could just stay worse, even after the realization. There are all kinds of people who realize something they do is hurting or even killing them, and keep doing it anyway.

I think most people have the same feeling. People are doing a lot of social calculus right now.
