For junior positions WFH can definitely be sub-optimal but in my eyes it also trains the juniors to over-communicate when they are stuck or are in a need of a coaching session. It's a way to distinguish the people who are way too shy for their own career good.

It's less about communication, and more about not hating my job. I'm slowly coming to the conclusion I'd rather work in a bakery or something than WFH as a programmer, because I'd at least be around people.

Well, that's a separate thing though, right?
To be fair, I too could use some more socialization but not sure that work is the ideal vector for me. I'd rather have a less stressful job on my terms (in my home office) and/or with less hours and then just proceed and make my free time more pleasant around other people.
