> But, I’ve realized that it’s been harder to stay in touch with people.
The people I was in contact with before social media are still in contact with me via phone, text, chat, email, etc. Most of my social media "friends" were connections and acquaintances. I was never really in contact with those people so nothing was lost when I deleted my social media accounts.
If they don't make an effort to talk to you then they aren't that interested in a relation/friendship and not worth worrying about.
