Alternately find a company that supports a mix of in person and remote work and provides the tools to do "in person" things like white-boarding and the culture to provide "coffee chats" and other camaraderie building events.

I think that a lot of people who dislike WFH are missing the sense of community more than are actually missing talking with someone face to face with a cup of coffee in their hand. Not always the case, but I think those are two separate audiences that get clumped together in these conversations.

I just don't really think that works. Maybe I've simply used the wrong tools, but I'm skeptical.

Some day I imagine we'll all have perfect VR headsets (or brain implants) and location and distance will be an illusion. But we're not there yet.
