I don't think it would have been a problem (and it wasn't a problem) until I started WFH.
There's a huge difference between a place you can live in while being out of the house for ten hours a day on weekdays and whenever on the weekend and a place you basically are stuck in.
I'm in an expensive city because the job I got is in the center of it. If I knew I could work from home forever I could move further out, or to another state. I think I'd have been much happier in this case.
I am moving into a place that does seem to have roommates more aligned to my own interests. A bit more space too. My current apartment was mostly as a result of not having much time/funds to move and needing to do it quickly and cheaply.
