Agreed, however that is a bonus to my wanting less distractions. Important things will be phone calls. Less important will be email. I would probably just host my own social web platform if I wanted anything more, thus keeping the social circle small and cozy. uMurmur, phpBB, devzat ssh chat.
How do you get photos of social events? I have never been able to convince my friends to share trip photos on email. Nobody wants to touch it with a 10 foot pole. This is not something you can confront anyone on.
For people in my social circle that would be a good use case for phpBB or email. The younger generations are less interested in things that don't get likes and emoji's so I completely understand what you mean. I suppose they are stuck using the mainstream corporate platforms.
