HN makes it seem like the majority is die hard work from home, but I guarantee you that you are by far the minority. Remote work is not for everyone, it has its pros and cons. One of the biggest cons is isolation. For a lot of people, the work place is an incredibly social place, and when you rely on that for your socializing (which is 100% okay!) then the impact of forced WFH very often leads to isolation and slight depression. I personally prefer a mix, and believe you should use each for the strengths they have. Without a shadow of a doubt, casual collaboration is easier in person. Similarly, I’m far less disturbed at home. At my current work, we’ve built up a work style where you decide yourself when you’re in and when you’re not. Notably though, this does mean that everything needs to assume everyone is fully remote for it to work well though.
