> One option is to re-create that talk

One remote first company I interviewed with told me all their daily calls were video because they wanted to make sure people still felt human. And I think it's such a crucial piece in all this because people have been accustomed to just doing audio only which only further creates a sense of loneliness.

Yeah. I'm remote at a mostly collocated company and I'm always trying to get my face on other people's screens whether that's a stand-up or not screen sharing off the bat during demos or even just over-commenting in group chats to get at least my name out there.

It's worth it though, and when I'm on-site I get people talking to me that I've never met who recognize me from somewhere I was on a screen.
