As an introvert who has spent the past couple of years actively working on this, I agree with the article. We are social mammals, we are supposed to have conversations with other people. Even before we were sheltering in place, a lot of people got in their cars, drove to an office where they might talk to other people but not really have conversations (why the proverbial water cooler is actually important), get back in their cars, come home, not really have much connection with people at home, then consume a one-way stream of content, and repeat. That's not a good way to live.
I can still remember wonderful conversations I had with strangers decades ago, and with casual acquaintances I've revived over the past couple of years. Highly recommend.
