Yes get a job outside of "tech." Every company has a website, most of them have dev teams for them. Some of my happiest friends have got jobs doing web dev for companies whose products they use because of hobbies: sailing, climbing, kitchen equipment etc.

These are often less competitive than startup or tech companies too. By some measures the work can be less exciting but it varies quite a bit so don't judge in advance. Also it will be in support of things people actually want and use and are willing to pay money for, in sharp contrast to tech industry adware and VC rent seeking.

All of my friends who work remote for these companies do like 45min of work per day; this is the answer

So true! I have a tech job at a Fortune 100 building unique and interesting distributed systems in Elixir and get to work on open source libraries through the company. You won't make as much $$$, but you can potentially work on more interesting projects that overlap specific domains.
