Also a remote worker for 7-8 years, I would agree with these suggestions if you are able. I would add:

a) If you can and your company is willing, request a monitor. If your laptop allows for more than 1 monitor, ask for more than 1. Also I prefer to use a mouse and external keyboard, so why not request that as well. Your home is now your office so in an ideal world, your company should treat it as such and supply you with what you need.

b) Treat working from home as if you are at work. If you are new to this, then dress like you are going to work or something similar that gets you into the work mindset. Also make sure spouses, children, roommates, etc. understand you are work and not available.

I actually prefer the macbook keyboard but yeah, monitor + whatever is ergonomic for you

Regarding b) I agree with you, but after 6-7 years, I'm so used to work in underwear (or sometimes drenched in water from a swim on the pool during summer) that I forgot that it takes sometime to be mentally able to get in/out of work mode:)
