Pre-pandemic I started commuting by train and even though it was nearly the same time spent, my attitude and outlook was worlds better than when I was driving in heavy traffic every day.
There are multiple workable solutions, and unfortunately most US cities aren't heavily invested in any of them. My city has very limited rail lines and it was only happenstance that my work was close enough to a stop for it to be a reasonable way to get to the office. Literal millions of other people in the metro area don't have that option.
Design communities where people can walk to work, walk to the neighborhood grocery store, walk to the park...
It's all the driving we hate. I'd gladly work in an office again if I could walk there.
I will fight tooth and nail against having to commute ever again.
