And... informal communication has to be in a video call? It can't be in writing?

On video calls and in meatspace, you get to see peoples facial expressions, their smiles, they can move their hands and make gestures. I much prefer that to text.

As for the human contact, I do recommend having a social life outside work. Distributed or not distributed work.

You are correct but, personally, I think spending 8 hours a day without seeing faces is too much.
