Seriously though I’m not even sure how you define social media such that it couldn’t be gamed into meaninglessness.

That is the central problem with all of this.
Oh, you want the government to regulate “social media”, like requiring age verification and such things? Because you are noticing young people being “addicted” (what you mean is having a habit, or hobby, that you don’t like) to TikTok or Instagram or what?
OK, have fun without wikis, public git repos, public tech support forums that aren’t financially able to comply with any of these regulations. What do you mean that’s not what you meant! You said social media, social media is any website that allows the general public to publish information and read information published on it, so clearly that’s exactly what you meant!
This www.eff.org/cyberspace-independence needs to be widely remembered again, and quickly before it’s too late to undo the damage.
