Honestly, I think a large part of my peer's (I'm solidly millennial) social anxiety stems from never having to deal with a lot of uncomfortable situations. I'm old enough that I remember a chunk of life pre-internet. Having to use corded the phone to call hang out with your friends, having to talk to parents and strangers to get a hold of your friends, calling a date to have their parent answer, having to knock on doors for church, etc... all built me up to have basically no qualms with talking to strangers, but certain younger close friends of mine can't answer the phone for the food delivery to give them the door code to their apartment. It blows my mind sometimes, but I genuinely do consider it a consequence of technology enabling them to avoid doing those things regularly.
