If you don't talk to people, you will lose your mind. If you're isolated for any reason, self-imposed or otherwise, you'll seek out socialization wherever you can find it. Humans are social animals; we need social interaction to survive. Choosing bad friends hurts your mental health as much as choosing bad food hurts your physical health. It's important to surround yourself with good people, for that reason. There are more than a few popular social networks which are actively harmful to their participants. I think hubski is not one like that.
