You can still enable remote work while putting guard rails around the need for video conferencing due to the cognitive load and emotional drain it clearly causes.

I think I have only been on camera 3 or 4 times since 2020.
The value has always been in the audio or what someone is sharing on their screen.
Video is mostly a distraction. If it is my meeting then video is going to be disabled for everyone.
My experience is that the people who love video is highly correlated with people who love useless meetings.

Strong agree. If you want your video on, I am cool with that. If you want it off, also cool. If you're not present, I'm going to know either way, but I want you to be comfortable while we work together. I care about the output and outcomes, not the control. n=1, ymmv, etc.
