One of the changes due to WFH that I'm happiest about is how all meetings are now online, which makes my inability* to find the right time to take a turn speaking in a conversation less of a problem (since it's possible to "raise a hand" in most online meeting apps, or just drop a message in chat.) Better still, most meetings can be converted to emails, so this situation doesn't arise in the first place. I don't think most people realise how much anxiety this kind of stuff causes "introverts".

* Also shared by most people with ADHD.

I also like that I can effectively opt out of the meeting just by moving my real work to my forward facing monitor and putting the meeting on the side.
