Ask HN: Is it a wise career decision to work as a remote developer

Whether you freelance or work a more traditional job, in my experience, your future work will come from your network. Is it possible to create a good network remotely? Certainly. But it's probably harder.

I think if you're in your 20s, you might want to base your decision on other factors more than career building. It's OK to think slightly shorter term--where would you get the most enjoyment out of working?

I am in the same situation and wondering same question. I believe that I still have a lot to learn, and it's difficult to do it while working remotely. So for now, I prefer to go to office but in the future I would love to work remotely from a place I love and whenever I want :)

I prefer to go to office when i was young. It's a lot easier to learn/build relationship with others in an office.
