    TLDR: the article tries to blame remote work, but the explanations show that the problems come from people’s inability to separate personal and work time, and from gender inequality (while also assuming that a relationship is automatically a man and a woman).

    Another stupid thing that tries to bash on remote work for shit reasons.

    I’m sure there are some scenarios where this is bad, but like anything else the quality of the relationship is going to come down to the people in it. My wife and I had 2 years of simultaneously working from home and it was amazing.
