I've done WFH well, and I previously had stretches of time when I did it poorly. My WFH improved when I realized its on me to develop a "theory of mind" for what my co-workers and boss (and others) know about my work. That means asking myself daily if the team knows what I'm working on, what my challenges are, what I did yesterday, what are the risks, etc. I try to provide the same attention back to my peers--paying attention to what they're doing each day, even if it's not directly relevant to me. Also offering my time to get colleagues unstuck or accelerated, and asking for their help when I know they can return the favor. In mostly remote teams, we favor video chat over voice. Also I like to say on team chat whenever I'm stepping away from the keyboard for appreciable time, and say when I'm back. I favor deliverable forms of work like git commits. But sometimes half of my day has been spent on a really delicate, diplomatic email, and I say that at standup the next day. Lastly all my friends know I don't do extra things during the week. I have a job and I like to stay focused. For background, I'm a senior data scientist and have previously been a software engineer. For example, my home office is in L.A. One boss was in Boulder, CO and a later one in Camarillo, CA. One teammate lived in Venice near the beach, another in Irvine.
