Overdose of social media

I hate the way that social media is all around our lives and I'm not saying it to be quirky or different (because I was and still in some way am chronically online) but because I hate how it's affecting relations irl

I used to not see how much time I spend on a screen along with my friends, but ever since my phone broke and had to limit my media time to a minimum I've been seeing some patterns.
Whenever I travel or walksomewhere, almost everyone is on their phone, and over half of people are with their headphones on, which I understand, since there isn't much to do in public transport.
But even outside of that place people are still stuck to electronics, like it was something attached to their hand, wherever I go there is at least 1 person who can't get of social media, who was addicted, even when the time and place wasn't really a place where you could do that (for example during classes in school).  Even studies show that the average screen time is over 7 hours a day, where provided that you sleep for a 'normal' amount of time (7-9h a day) this takes up almost half of your daytime each day.
Sometimes I don't mind that but sometimes it can get frustrated wasting it all on one thing

But when is that too much?
During your lifetime you find hobbies, friends and discover things about yourself or create your memories. Of course, with mobiles, the time to do that is cut, and while I agree that from time to time they can help you with finding yourself or starting something, taking inspiration and make communication with long-distance relations easier, it takes what we have right here and now.
On your social life, you meet up with people, they're your source of everything, the way you speak, behave, even how you dress. Also the face-to-face communnication makes you have empathy towards others, know how to read off emotions, ect.
But how are you going to do that when instead of being free you have a screen? It depends, but without the connection in real life you can't really sense what's excactly happening for that moment, or the way you lack physical relation with them, it's easier for words to be misinterpreted without the body language, the words loose strength and everything becomes dull, it lacks affection
Apart from that, even when you do something with someone in real life, the phones are in the way and also because of social media people have shorted attention span which makes topics go fast making it after some time difficult to maintain a conversation, or you spend time both on your phones sending things all over again

Do I hate and meant to disrespect anyone here? No. Do I say that is the case with everyone? Also no, although you can probably name at least 1 person which is heavily addicted, at least addicted enough that you see that something weird and bad is going on there, and to conclude I just want to say that social media isn't good or bad, it depends on how you use it and should be careful and think if you're not taking things too far and should balance your internet and non-internet lifestyles.
