I wonder how you freelancers are coping with this
I'm not sure what you mean with this.
I know freelancers who work from home, but in a team, just like you, except they earn about three times your salary.
I also know freelancers who work at the office, in a team, just like you before COVID, except they earn about three times your salary.

And then there's me, I work alone most of the time, in a private office in a building that I share with other tenants.
For me, it's 15 minutes by car or 45 minutes by bike (my preferred commute) and I rarely work from home.
Also, I earn about three times your salary Laugh | :laugh:

Bottom line, freelancers do pretty much the same as you, except for a lot more money, but also more risk (contract ending without a new job, falling ill, etc.)
