Many people in comments write about difficulties with onboarding to remote-only companies, with establishing relationships with colleagues at work.

My close friend works remotely at a Finnish company (he is Fin himself), and every Friday at 14:00 they finish working, and have beer drinking session and casual chit-chat over teleconference. Every week. He likes the experience overall.

Of course, not everybody wants nor can drink, but it is some idea to get each other better.
