The captive social environment of school interacts with the captive social environment of social networks to extend the active hours during which Fear-of-Missing-Out and interpersonal conflicts can occur. I'm sure teens would happily detox from school as well, if they were given the chance. Of course, social networks are always on your phone, even in the middle of the night. But chances are, if for some reason, someone were to have an entirely different stock of people on their Instagram than their school peers, the amount of social pressure experienced would be lessened. In fact, I'd posit that this can be seen with social networks like Tumblr, Twitch, and YouTube, where one is far more likely to cultivate interest-based friends than a mere combination of schoolmates and a few choice super-popular accounts.
