While I do not always put my camera on... (sometimes I like wearing a raggedy old t shirt and taking a call from my sofa chair) I think this shows one major advantage to face to face communication which is human connection.
- gkop 5y agoWould you spell out please why you don’t put the camera on when joining from your sofa chair? I feel self-conscious joining from my couch occasionally, but am pushing through it, there’s no reason why we can’t normalize harmless alternatives to desk locations. So just want to check that I’m not missing some material consequence of this behavior.

I work in finance and while we (software developers) don't have to wear suits or traditional business-ware like traders, fund managers or other associates, sitting in my sofa couch in a t-shirt just feels like it would come off ass to casual.
