Digital intimacy is a term that describes the forms of emotional and sexual connection that occur through digital media: chat, cam, audio, messages. It's not a surrogate for real intimacy: it's a variant of it with its own characteristics.
What distinguishes it from real intimacy
Digital intimacy lacks the direct physical component, but it doesn't lack everything else. Communication is real, emotions are real, and in many cases the level of personal openness can be higher precisely because there is a protective distance.
Some people are able to say things in a cam chat that they would never say in person: distance lowers the guard. This can be an advantage (it allows explorations that in real life would be blocked by anxiety) or a disadvantage (it can create an idealized version of the connection that doesn't hold up to real contact).
Digital intimacy in the erotic context
On cam platforms and in interactive adult content, digital intimacy is both the product and the mechanism. The most appreciated performers are those who manage to create a feeling of authentic connection through the screen, not just to be visually attractive.
This requires specific communication skills: listening, memory, the ability to respond to the individual rather than the generic client. It's no different from what makes a real interaction good, just adapted to the medium.
