Comment on Introverts of our era spend their time on their computers, but what did introverts do before? Like when literacy rates were lower (pre-1950s)? Or before the printing press?

A lot of crafts and trades can be done in small teams or solo. Leather-working, furniture making, blacksmithing, etc. If we’re talking before the printing press, being a scribe could be solitary (or at least quiet, if you were a monk). Tending livestock (especially sheep) was often a solo job. Fishing, trapping, the list is long.
