Online activities can really help those lonely people, but I also want to say that it is only an artificial happiness that online activities bring to us, especially to those who are looking for the deeper meaning of happiness.

Yes and no, online activities can help in this regard when you doing something meaningful with the time spend online. But online activities can not help anyone from being lonely if the activities is not soul uplifting, instead they compound the loneliness with more complicated emotional and psychological problems like depression, anxiety, isolation etc. What can help one who is lonely is productive activities. Do something that would add value to your life and at the end of the day, you would be happy that you did.

I think overthinking can be avoided by online activities. Social media like facebook, instagram are now used by all the people. For calling whatsapp, telegram are used.

Maybe the feeling of being alone and unable to get in touch of their friends make someone feel lonely. They are not satisfied of just seeing a picture or just a video call and it just made them miss those person so much.

Yes, online activities can help people from being lonely. Online activities can provide a sense of connection and community that can help people to feel less alone. Online places such as forums, chat rooms, and social networking sites can provide a platform to connect with others and build relationships. An elderly person may particularly appreciate sites that offer activities such as puzzles, memory games, and book clubs. Additionally, there are many online support groups available where people can share their loneliness and find comfort in knowing that they are not alone. For topics, elderly people may like to discuss current events, reminisce about their past, and talk about their hobbies or interests.

This really depends, for me personally no. I need real people around me, I need to hug my friends, I need to talk with them face-to-face... I'm not a huge fan of online interactions, but at teh same time I'm aware that sometimes it is the only option and then it's better to try than regret later that we haven't
