Simple solution to the loneliness thing: get a webcam. You can see the office, they can see you. I saw a business that ran like that. Seemed okay. It wasn't a dev who was remote though, and that may matter.

Also some people don't like the feeling of being watched.

Another simple solution: go to a coworking space once in a while.

It's usually cheap and has a coffee machine, and plenty of people to introduce yourself to and smalltalk with.
