Anecdotes don't prove anything. The grandparents I know aren't on social media. Most barely use smartphones.

One was complaining to me about how their bank requires everything to be done through a phone app. They don't like how they can go into a branch to do anything because the bank teller tells them to do it on the app.

Just because social media addicted a lot of old people doesn't mean all old people are doom scrolling.
