I suspect there are a ton of people who would be much more extroverted if they had places and communities where it felt like their style of extroversion was welcome. Instead they are lonely.
It's not just about interaction. It's about meaningful interaction. When you get lots of interaction but none of it meaningful to you, it's just as bad as not getting any at all. The hope of "coming across" something meaningful keeps you going... for while... until it doesn't.
