This might not answer your questions completely but I think may be helpful.
My boyfriend and I also recently moved from Arlington to Baltimore, although it was more for my work. My BF is a graphic artist and works fully remote. We moved here a month ago and live in Fed Hill.
I'm Asian and I haven't had a negative experience here. TBH I find that the people here are a lot nicer than people in NOVA, and I don't feel super judged based on how I look and whether or not I am someone worthy to network with.
I haven't found food culture to be super great - although I just moved a month ago so I haven't been able to explore much. There isn't a whole lot of Asian food, not compared to say Annandale or Fairfax. But I do think there's a variety of food to choose from. Again take this answer with a grain of salt because I literally just moved here.
My boyfriend is WFH and we have Verizon. We haven't had issues with Internet - just make sure they install it correctly haha
As to your hobbies and interests, there are some arcade bars in Fed Hill that seem fun! I haven't been able to go yet, but definitely things to do that aligh with your interests. My bf and I are nerds in the sense that we cosplay - I think there's a baltimore comic con that might have things you're interested in.
