"I am a person who gives in easily to accessible compulsions. "
As a person who doesn't use Twitter or any other social media myself, I ask you had this virus arrived in the days before the internet and you were similarly confined then how would you occupy yourself?
Board games, card games (in a pinch, solitaire's not just a program that ships with Windows), puzzles, puzzle books, music, radio. Writing, drawing, playing music, math. It's not like we had nothing to do before the Internet. We just couldn't watch/read/listen-to anything we wanted on a whim. It took a little planning. There was always plenty to do, you just couldn't go "I suddenly want to watch this movie I've not thought about in years, don't already own on VHS, and no-one I know has it either" then be watching it inside five minutes and without leaving the house. Or easily and quickly answer silly trivia questions ("who was the guy in that one thing?") unless you had the relevant trivia book (remember topic-specific books of trivia?) which meant you had to actually kinda care about the topic (enough to have bought the book) and couldn't just indulge every low-value "hm, I wonder".
[EDIT] oh and top-lists were less available so we were kinda happier with whatever was around, so far as media went. You had to be kind of a nerd for a topic to be exposed to much in the way of rankings or best-of lists (buy relevant magazines and books that contained them). Outside one's actual strong interests the thought "this may not be the best thing in this category I could be experiencing right now, I better go find out what that is" just never came to mind.

And that's often a good thing! I find that I read books a lot less now, because there's less motivation to invest deeply in any one book when it's almost certainly not the best one, and there's that niggling background feeling that I could go out and find something even better to read if I browsed a little more ….
