Not necessarily; all hobbies simply become social. Gunpla? You go down to a anime store to do it with others. Kayaking? Storage facility the manages the kayaks and can rent personal storage. Robotics? You&#x27;d head down to the local Maker shop and rent storage&#x2F;locker. It&#x27;s simply becoming &quot;social&quot;.<p>I&#x27;m not saying I agree or like; just that it doesn&#x27;t mean giving everything up.<p>But.. There can be benefits to building a robot in a room where you can go on the slack channel and ask for a part... or kayak with someone new similar to going for a round of gold with a new partner.
