I think this is also a very individually subjective thing.
I typically don't engage in social media, but sometimes I post pictures of food I've made to Instagram and about once a week I take a quick scroll through Facebook to keep in touch with relatives.
And it's never seemingly done me any harm. I've had weeks when I've forgotten to do the above, and aside from a family member mentioning it, would have never noticed.
But for some people, it certainly seems like Facebook causes them a whole bunch of harm. I don't think that's per se intrinsic to Facebook specifically (I have plenty of other things to blame them for, they're not off the hook). I think there are people who maybe due to anxiety or something else going on really struggle with social media and it causes them great panic.
But if the issue is with the individual and it is highly subjective, then that suggests the solution isn't to change social media but to change the individual having troubles.
