"But working from home isn’t the optimal version of working remotely."

... for you. it's pretty perfect for me. i love my home office, i'm never tempted to go flop on the couch, i get to go for walks to visit my beehives during lunch. once a week i spend some morning time working in a coffee shop just to remind myself there are other humans. that's sufficient.

Agreed it has its ups! I’m glad it works so well for you. I’ve found having an office to go into allows me to better separate work and life, letting me “shut off” at the end of the day.

Note: I live in a 1br apartment. That might also be part of my struggle.

I live in a 4br house with 12 kids. It would still be a struggle.

Haha, yes I think it would!

But also you probably get more joy in not having to commute / being at home vs. me living with only my partner.
