I have friends and live with friends and I still feel lonely when working remotely. I like hybrid the most because sometimes i need to just go into work and talk about the things im working on with people who actually understand (not work related talks just for fun)
So you like to go into work in order to waste time talking talking about non work related things? Make sense why you should stay remote.

childless men miss sense of community
Myself and everyone I know works remote. We're all childless/childfree and not a single one of us miss any community, we all feel there are zero downsides to it. This just comes across like propaganda to stop people working remote and return to office.
Well, see, that's because you and your friends experience is not a fucking study...

Take the same approach as home schooling. Community comes from engaging in other activities.

Best thing about working from home is stepping away from my desk, popping upstairs, and tossing my little baby boy up in the air a few times while he giggles and smiles.
This was me until I realized I didn't have a child and that I lived in the first floor.
Where was I going? What giggled as I tossed it into the air?

That‘s one way to call it.

I want to kick your city in the nuts. How could you gut parks and libraries.
John Witmire is a DINO by every definition of the word. He's deep in bed with the police, he loves privatization of public services, and he makes common cause with the state's Republican leadership on a regular basis. Nothing the man loves more than "balancing the budget" on the backs of public workers and low income residents.
But he's been a Democrat since he took his State Senate seat and squatted in it back in 1983. So the party apparatus loyally and mechanically supported him all through the primary and general elections. The "It's my turn" candidate is taking his turn.

Not everyones ideal life is to at all times be alone.
Good, then go socialize.
The issue is that people that want socialization complain that those who enjoy solitude don't want to socialize with them, so those that prefer solitude should be forced into the office instead.
It's a really odd thing. Stop relying on work to satisfy your socialization needs. Try a hobby instead. Anything should do - Magic the Gathering, Warhammer 40k, Tabletop RPG, sports, dance classes, anything.

Its not a waste of time, its very useful. I can see how a robot such as yourself wouldnt understand.
You can spend your 8 hours a day in a cubicle and I will spend it having fun and working along side people I genuinely like.

Or if we use less adversarial language, this study is far from universal and its findings should be applied with the understanding that not all people will not match those who were in the study. As with most things, far more research is needed to get a thorough understanding.
Nah, I'd say this fits solidly in the category of "heaps of research indicating that single men suffer more in situations that promote isolation". Adversarial language or not, the average Lemmy users is so far in their own social phobia that they don't register that most humans, being social animals, thrive with MORE interaction and not less.

Ah, then maybe you would enjoy talking to the 50 year old office mom!
Assuming those are still a thing, of course. They were a thing when my office's age averaged ~ 25, but I seem to remember losing the office mom position when the overall office age got higher... but maybe the position went away more generally...
I actually wouldn't enjoy talking to most people at work, because that would involve going there instead of doing it from the computer where I already am
