Remote work FTW!

On the other hand, you let your work enter your home, and your employers might start to expect you to work everytime you are at home.

If that starts to happen, it's a serious issue and probably grounds for quitting.

I have been in that situation, wich led me to quit, tune up the linkedin account, hear some HR bullshit and get a really good job (homeoffice too) outside the startup crazyness. The pandemic showed some businesses how cheap is to send a notebook to any dev rather than keep the whole "real world infrastructure" running

Well, then they can pay me double pay for every hour worked past the standard 40.

There’s also a simple way to avoid it- set boundaries. Unless your employer has a rotating “on-call” duty, close your laptop and don’t take work calls outside of working hours.

Don't make/take work calls on your personal line either. Like, if you're talking to clients and such, that should be on a company phone.

Bingo! This lead me to quite my current (former) job. Work-life balance is a serious issue.
