To be fair, this is barely a feature. If you are on WIFI anyone that really cares knows where you are already

Exactly. I already don't use the work wifi because they don't need to know how much I use Lemmy while at work.

you could use a VPN though. protonvpn has measures to work around network restrictions, or set up a wireguard at home, and if they would block it, tell them you need it for work. your own notes related to the trade and your task planning tool stored on your homeserver, or something like that
