#63Meta: I personally found the published version very unfriendly to my eyes, so I chose to generate a download link for OP's spreadsheet. This is a direct link to download the spreadsheet : https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/download/spreadsheets/...
This is cool. Thank you for this

#64Maybe it's better to have as a GitHub repository so people can add new stuff there through pull requests and it can be indexed by Google so others can find it? I would add two missing sources myself, they are not the greatest but I found my previous remote job on one of them.

#65What criteria were used to rank these as "best"? I personally see some on the list that aggregate high-quality jobs in small quantities (e.g. WeWorkRemotely), and then others that have variable-quality jobs in very high quantities (e.g. UpWork).
As far as I can tell, the title is "Remote jobs and gigs platforms." I see no indication they were ranked. Correct me if I'm wrong.

#67Earlier quoted context omitted.
This is right on the money. I think the 'trick' to getting a satisfying remote position is to use WFH as a bargaining chip. For instance, I was living in Seattle and I wanted to live in Portland, where it's more affordable. When I started WFH, I traded a pay cut for the opportunity to WFH. It all worked out; my place in Oregon was about 70% as expensive as what I would've paid to live in Seattle. It was a win-win; th…
its also a win for them too in that they dont need to provide office space for you
IE, if your plan was to let people WFH, then sell the buildings they used to occupy, that plan is going to go south if the value of the building drops by half.

#69Is it possible to get a HTML or plaintext version for people who don't just run any non-free JS[1]? [1]: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html
Why not, I've been meaning to work on my vim macros. https://gist.github.com/danShumway/2c4cc6916ff8ed4d941ec64b5... No guarantee that this is up to date[1] (or even error free). I realize that Github Gists are also not Open Source, but they render without Javascript enabled, and Simplenote was acting up for me and wouldn't let me publish.

would you be willing to pay for a proxy service that took a url that used non-free JS and rendered it to pure dom that you could then view without JS ? any sense of whether other people that care about such things would be willing to pay ?
