One of those things are immediately solvable. Your can't sit in solitary and get upset that you get little real life interaction. Either own it and be happy or change to make yourself happy. It's not possible to live a perfectly ethical life and be happy.

Everything you said is fine except the last sentence which isn't just wrong but literally came out of nowhere.

Edit: maybe you mixed up the word "ethical" with something else?

The thing that is immediately solvable is to go meet people on proprietary platforms. Which they are avoiding for ethical reasons. It is not possible to be perfectly ethical and happy. It's really just not possible in the world we've made.

OP didn't say they don't visit those platforms for "ethical" reasons, you came up with it yourself.

And also it is perfectly possible to live an ethical life and be happy. Not every person must harm others or act otherwise unethically in order to be happy. You also can't just take a quote from some dude and claim it to be the ultimate truth, especially in philosophy.
