There’s definitely some real benefits to in person collaboration, but even when I’m in the office (a large majority of the time since I need to test on hardware) I mostly just send a slack message for 99% of things. If it’s a really pressing need I’ll go find them in person, but I could also just call people online.
Whiteboard sessions are better on a physical whiteboard, but I think everything else goes perfectly fine over chat or voice call.
Instead, I find motivation to be my biggest reason to come into the office. Sure, I still waste a lot of time on lemmy in the office, but I’m still more productive more often when I’m at my desk.

Completing the tasks so you can get your paycheck to pay your rent/mortgage doesn’t do it for you?
j/k, kind of.
In all seriousness, lack of motivation can hit a human being anywhere, especially they’re doing a task they don’t like doing.
