A truly valid problem. Myself i don’t like online communications with friends. It only makes me feel worse. it feels so incomplete and awkward. In person our convo is flowing much better
Not always you have the chance to keep communications on site. I am from Spain and I've moved to Germany a few years ago. I am working in an international company where there are people from everywhere around the world. I love to keep connected with all of them and a remote coffee sometimes is a good idea.
