Longtime lurker, first time poster. I completely agree with you.

Human beings need additional context when interacting with one another that isn't just some text on a screen. You can't learn everything about a person that way and while you can somewhat connect with them, there's levels there you're missing out on not being face to face.

There's also the matter that some people don't come across well online either, can't get their full personhood through the screen...

I think we all owe each other some grace for our humanity and how we deal with our problems. When we can at least see them even when we don't know how resolve them.
