How do you feel about UI that gives you settings to control the layout (Gmail), vs having a more opinionated single layout (Instagram)?

I've worked at FAANG for 4 years as product designer. I was getting a bit burned out, but COVID wfh took all the remaining fun out of my work. I feel like I can't spend another day on Zoom calls in my role.

Should I quit my FAANG job to try and start a startup? Part of me thinks that it'll be fun and motivating. The other part thinks the grass is just greener, especially since I have no idea what I want to start.

Feeling a bit lost. Anyone else in this position?
