> You don't really get to know how your colleagues work/think over text based communication. I've found the opposite: You don't really know how your colleagues work/think until you read something they commit to paper. > Work does feel a bit more lonely. Haven't felt that, but it depends on the person I think. > I missed talking through problems. Writing about stuff is a different, more filtered way of processing information. I like to do both as part of my problem solving toolkit. I prefer thinking through problems, and bouncing carefully crafted questions at times over email or slack. Maybe over zoom on occasion if it's a particularly messy problem. At the end of the day, different people have different ways to solve the same problems, which is why I love the remote work revolution so much - it gives more choice, and allows people to seek out companies that better match their work style.
