If you are on a Digital Nomad Visa do you ignore the 183 days rule? (alien.top)

I'm currently paying taxes in my home country (UK) since I have a regular job with a UK company. I live in Estonia with a DNV (and most likely plan on staying the full year).

Technically, if I stay more than 6 months I need to pay taxes here, however, they seem to make it quite complicated and expensive, given my employer doesn't have an entity here.

This just got me thinking whether you guys in a similar situation just ignore this and assume nobody will say anything, or do you do everything by the book? Or do you make sure you don't stay more than 183 days?

I'm curious about this too. Technically it would take a lot for them to know/prove that you were actually working in their country for 183 days, for example maybe spent a lot of time going to Latvia or Finland, there are no border controls after all. It seems like they would have to have a specific division for tracking and contacting digital nomad who they believe may owe taxes. But I'm not completely sure and hope someone posts on this thread with more info
