I personally find it much harder to onboard new people. It was easier to notice when someone is lost/struggling when you could see more body language. Mentoring in a pair/XP style feels a bit harder over Zoom but the tools are getting better. Planning meetings (or any type of open discussions) are much more grating to me with the Zoom lag and cross talk. Heads down, ticket based work has less distractions though. Maybe I just suck but I feel much more adept at in person interactions than remote interactions and its not about appearances.
