60 years ago the only way was to read propagandist newspapers and TV news, the only social was getting in your car and going to social places like church events, private clubs like moose, vfw, etc and of course the best place for social, bars... I remember bars being on every corner as a kid.

People that are "unplugged socially" I believe have a mental illness, so since you have deleted all you apps, hopefully you've spent more time in church, civic clubs and social bars (not dance clubs) otherwise if you're sitting home with your cats, we'll I feel for you.

Best of luck.
