I ditched everything in 2018 or so, the only one I retain is LinkedIn to check on job markets, but it remains hibernated except for when I check once a year (no connections etc). Otherwise I still get to enjoy limited exposure (Instagram, Twitter et al as friends still share stuff via other methods like IRC etc) via the various front-ends that exist now.. You'd be surprised how little it really matters - people you actually know and/or care about in real life will generally be happy to use other more direct contact methods, if not maybe they don't consider you worth talking to anyway (the Facebook syndrome, "friends" with people you never interact with). You can always use IM like telegram etc via other means such as matrix bridges, which is how I keep in touch with family as they aren't quite adept enough to handle a platform that has serious bugs and generally isn't that user friendly (matrix, element). Really though it all depends on how dependant on social media you are for communication and content, it's certainly difficult if you consume a lot, but after a while you'll probably realise it's a waste of time anyway and spend that wasted time doing something productive or beneficial for yourself.
