The hover on tooltip shows gerne as like and not gladly. How would I say:
I sleep as in my bed.
Scenario: someone is asking how well one sleeps when not in their home.

Wondering the same thing, my first thought was that this sentence should translate as, "I sleep like I am in my own bed" with the same context as you.
They aren't interchangeable, "mag"/"mögen" is a verb while "gern" is an adverb. I'm still learning as well so I'm not very sure, but I believe that "mag"/"mögen" doesn't work in that sentence because the thing that is liked in "mag"/"mögen" need to be the object, not the verb.
