Actually, the largest study of our time by a very reputable institution recently showed the opposite.

A bit silly to look at the bleakness and wealth inequality that's increased dramatically over the past two decades and blame social media on increased suicide rates.

I'm very suspicious of this study. Not the least because it focuses solely on well-being. That's just one facet of the social media picture even if it gets corroborated by other researchers.

If you're going to tell Oxford psychology professors they're doing studies wrong you're going to have to be a lot more specific than that lol.
