What is modern way of living ?

I got so judged by my close cousins today when they told me do you use Instagram. I said I used to but not anymore. And they just started laughing. They said what day and age are you living in. Everybody uses it. It's a must have app. And I just started feeling bad like I kinda understand we all live in a digital world and some people spend half their day online instead of being outside in real world. And some have experienced extreme levels of anxiety and social skills problems but everything is easily so available which I guess has created comfort zone. Able to work from home, order food, use Internet to stay connected playing games or whatever, doing shopping online. But I don't understand what is it even mean by modern way of living. Is it like adapting the western culture. Communicate more in English, changing views on society. A common thing I've noticed in many household is scolding kids to speak English, don't speak desi too much.
