Everybody who wanted to leave what they thought was overpriced pretty much already did.
We might see some continuation - but given that companies are trying to claw back as much remote work as possible - I'm skeptical.

- busterarm 3y agoI'm now entering my eighth year of working full-time remote since 2008. Had a big gap between 2013 and COVID, but I don't see myself ever going back. South Carolina is too choice of a place to live.
