Would the OP or someone else familiar with the site be able to provide more insight on the data? The site also allows users to submit layoffs so the data is crowdsourced too:

#4As a person actively applying in EU... the market reeks candidate desperation. Salaries remained constant or even decreased in numbers despite over 10% inflation. Zero flexibility on the employer side "need 5 years of SRE experience for SRE position, need 5 years of DevOps experience for DevOps position, etc". WTF is going on. With the perspective of mangling my brain on the "next cool" Angular stack I'll remain working on personal projects, thanks.

I just got a job in the EU by watching on my desired commute path for new company signs I hadn't noticed before, then researching them. I found a startup in an industry that interested me, made an effort to network my way into the eyes of the CEO, and then made myself available when he had work available.
The whole process took 9 months.
The front door of companies is always locked due to the unintended consequences of trying to scale up HR and recruiting. Hang out by the side door, and an insider will let you in. (Remember that "bad recruiting" is a problem insiders are trying to solve, just as you are.)

I think there's some wisdom in this. A huge amount of talent is about to be unlocked and a lot of BS cleared.
The good ideas will continue to be funded, so keeping a keen eye out and being in a position to jump makes sense.

And better with improving market conditions!
I guess that's not your point though?

Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act says layoffs of >100 FTE within a 30 day window have to be reported 60 days in advance. California state law is even stricter at >50 FTE.
