No, but it's made my decision to stay in my home city more viable long term. I live in the UK Midlands, which is cheaper to live in but has less opportunities than London. I have had good jobs here, but less choice than I'd have liked. I started a job search and while I've ended up working for a local branch of an international company again, in my search I found many more remote positions. I think it'll mean that in future I'll be able to leverage my experience for a job at more like ~London salary. Right now, I'm probably at 80% of London salary for my job, which is fine as my cost of living is very low and I live in a very nice area of the kind that would be difficult to achieve as an owner and not a renter in the South.
