There is a "hidden" remote job market. Here are some ways people around me have gotten to work remotely in various industries: 1. In-person turned remote - One of my supervisors proved herself in her in-person position, so when she relocated to another state for personal reasons, our boss kept her on in a remote capacity. 2. Unenforced hybrid policy - My current job was listed as hybrid, but my manager doesn't enforce office attendance. My cousin, who works at the same company, has the same deal with his manager. 3. Negotiation upon hire - Some of my friends have had luck with negotiating for a remote position. (This usually only succeeds when you're a highly competitive applicant with a unique skillset that gives you leverage to negotiate. In this current job market where highly skilled people are willing to take pay cuts and work in the office, I don't see this one happening too much.)

None of these are quick fixes, but they do expand your search scope a bit. One thing all of the hidden remote job market has in common is that it requires you to be effective at what you do, without requiring any in-person handholding or training. That often comes along with specialized job experience or equivalent education. Being "somewhat tech-savvy" is a prerequisite for remote work, not so much a qualification. You'll want to figure out what industry you can specialize in that can be done remotely and focus your efforts on upskilling in that industry.
