I feel that perhaps you prefer, or simply didn't notice, the changes. Maybe you've always worked for huge companies. Remote work requires that Zoom calls and chat are used for almost everything, even if only 10% of people are not present. Prior to coronavirus this was not how any of the companies that I dealt with worked (small companies with <5 offices). Some meetings were remote, but most were in the break room with real faces. As a result, I left software development during the pandemic to pursue a life with more social interaction. The cerebral element was balanced out for me before, then it wasn't.
