Can I hijack this thread briefly to ask about that one line: "most people don't care too much for video conferencing". Having worked remotely for maybe the majority of my career at this point my experience is the exact opposite and it seems like the one place wherein we got acquired that didn't have a culture of video chats but was big enough to have multiple cities of offices suffered greatly from the simple fact that teams didn't work face to face when needed, and didn't have the tools to screenshare to collaborate. Body language, eye contact, and being able to look at the same thing when working together seem to me like a pretty fundamentally human thing.
I guess my question is that is it really something people don't care for? In my experience it's just vital and teams that don't do it appear worse off for it. Admitting my bias here though. ;)
