I wouldn’t say tend towards misanthropy as that’s a bit extreme. Maybe more that they’ll shy away from social situations but I think that’s still under the “socially awkward/anxious” umbrella.
I put an emphasis on the “needs to be isolated to recharge” aspect of introverted. Which broadens the spectrum of folks who are introverted but do well socially. I consider myself introverted and love social interaction and attention but too much and I do need to hermit away for a while, sometimes even mid-gathering.
That being said, going up to sing to strangers is big balls social hahaha. Sounds like OP just needs some work on empathy for more personal meaningful interaction.
That and being unable to swipe-collapse a comment tree. The right-left swipe only being reply (when there’s already that giant reply button) there is certainly a design choice.
