nice, that's why upwork is better than freelancer.com.. too many indian companies catfishing sole developers....

Yes, but there are other platforms aside from Upwork and Freelancer that are much better for hiring freelancers and vice versa

Which ones are those?

I have been one of those who critisized this new feature and have been banned from the community. Moreover, there are also Upwork Enterprise jobs that exclude freelancers from certain countrys (physical locations) without mentioning a reason why those freelancers/locations are excluded.
