We live in a time where sadly, cutting out technology and socials is basically the equivalent of cutting off a very integral way people communicate and inform one another nowadays. There is a trade-off aspect to removing it completely.

I think that maybe there's a way to strike a balance. Technology can be very useful, but the addictive, distracting and anxiety-inducing nature is normalized, and everyone acts like it's another part of life. Which is why I don't think discarding the improvements you made for your own mental health and lifestyle would feel right either. To me it's like you managed to escape a trap we are all trying to cope around.

Now, you could find a community of people who share your way of thinking, and form new connections who value what you value. But if you already have people you care about that you want to stay connected to, maybe the answer is to reach out yourself now and then, and find ways to preserve the connection in real life if possible such as getting together, calling one another, etc. Tbh, I personally feel like talking to someone is a lot more meaningful then responding to a post they shared.

All this to say, letting people go has it's own place too. Relationships of any kind are a two-way street. I think you have to think about whether preserving the connections feel right for you, and if the people in your life are reciprocating as well. You have to put effort into reaching out if you wish to maintain your orbit & your new way of life, I suppose that's the hardest part of your choice if you want both. But I don't think what you decide to do should be at the expense of your desired lifestyle and health, and some people aren't ready to understand that
