I don't believe he was in solitary confinement up until then.
Here is the UN (Nils Melzer) saying he is not, in May 2019 [0]
> "Although Assange is not held in solitary confinement..."
There were photo leaks early on showing Assange interacting with other prisoners, with the leaker saying he was popular.
I believe what Wikileaks refer to as "solitary confinement" is being put on the medical wing, and not in his normal cell. Obviously Wikileaks are interested in making his imprisonment seem as harsh as possible.
