> surprised that only 20% of people responded that they struggled with loneliness while working remote. In my experience this number seems to be higher.

Would you agree most lonely remote workers also tend to be younger?

It's somewhat unfortunate that we don't have additional data on the respondents since it may provide interesting insight (e.g. confounders that immediately spring to mind are country of residence and marital status), but there's a natural tendency to drift towards "exploitation" of existing relationships as one gets older as opposed to "exploring" new ones.

For instance, Doist's founder [1] cites being able to spend time with his son every morning as a major advantage.

In any case an even greater push towards remote work seems inevitable, especially as the tech workforce grows older.
