I prefer the term ”remote work” over ”working from home.” I almost never work from my apartment, beyond the occasional email. But by working from co-working offices or a coffee shop, I avoid the constant “hey, quick question man” and “let's just have a quick meeting” and driving during rush hour and having to ask permission to work from a beach in Florida because I scored cheap flights like happened last week. So a bit of a false dichotomy (not judging, just mentioning): "Remote working" does not necessarily mean "working from the space I also sleep in." That would drive me nuts.

Sure but for me its pretty much like an office. I like daily routines, getting out of the house in the morning. I do even enjoy a short commute to just think. However i still get the mentioned interruptions as i work on pretty big projects, but its mostly via IM. Working from the coffe shop or even the beach is not for me though, id just grab my girlfriend for a short trip and catch up on work on the next weekend.
