Why would you say so? Joining the Telegram channels is free, and creating an email alert at https://findmegigs.com/?remote=true#basic-plan is free as well If you're in financial trouble somehow or can't afford the paid plan on FindMeGigs that sends you all the jobs, DM on Twitter ( https://twitter.com/xoelipedes ) and I'll give you a free unlimited account for free.

I hate to pile on, but you're putting up a lot of barriers that are going to discourage casual viewers. I don't want to sign up for some app I won't use for anything else. I don't want to give out my email. I definitely don't want to pay for anything. Maybe I'm not your target market, but this is going to be a hard pass for many people.

I know people here like to hate Telegram but it is extremely common in certain areas and groups. Why not WhatsApp or Signal then? None of them has a working public API as far as I know.
