imo one of the most important things to learn for longterm survival doing remote work is that you don't have to work from home. i can just as readily work out of the back of my car at a skate spot or do emails and marketing on the chairlift. in the long term i'd like to build a truly portable workspace for backpacking and be able to go fully remote. co-working spaces or the library are good options for many people but really anything that gives you some semblance of normalcy and routine is good enough. hikkimoding is comfy to be sure but the social strain from doing it for an extended period, especially during crunch can be pretty hard mentally, that experience has been pretty universal among the freelancers i've known over the years.
