I'm not sure how much I buy this. I fit the introvert profile pretty heavily, with most of my time spent on computers or DIY stuff growing up. The main thing for me is that I'm very entrepreneurial, so my life centers very heavily around work and sometimes side projects. This made the transition to WFH very painful as I no longer had a real way to separate the "work me" from the "home me". Burnout soon came on, and even looking back at rough proxy metrics like KLoC or time in meetings, I completely dipped in Feb 2020 and never recovered. Learning has also severely slowed down. So yeah, as much as I do not enjoy the prospect of city life again, I am ready to go back.
