Isn't the point of the comment above to not even want to be up to date with every detail of people that are objectively not that important in your personal life? Not to decrease the social media usage because you feel you're up to date but to do it because it's unnatural and pointless?

I do think the approach of "engaging only in what you can fully take in" is really healthy and sensible and something people should consider. The thing I think is immoral is suggesting that is...the best approach for everyone in all situations. Many people in society simply are not in a position to do that. The president cannot "only engage in what they can fully take in". It's wrong to say that should be the standard applied to everyone - imo.
