    I would apply, but I don’t understand why they have “remote” but then tied to a specific country. I live in Korea and I’d understand some kind of a problem with time zones but before that I lived in Sweden and then I couldn’t have applied either.

      Usually it’s tied to employment regulations, funding requirements, the administrative overhead of dealing with a foreign tax code.

      If you really want to make it work, open a loan out company in the jurisdiction of the enploying company. The employing company hires your loan out corporation, and your loan out corporation then pays you. That way your loan out corporation does all the work of paying and managing you in a different country. And the employing organization doesn’t have to worry about any administration, overhead, legal issues. You’re taking all of that on. I’ve seen it work. But most companies don’t want to volunteer for that extra work, having a loan out is very helpful.

    I’m not a tech fella – just a refugee from the Reddit collapse trying to find my way in a social media environment that feels more authentic, less corporate, and more free. So – here’s wishing all of you good luck in this position but for me, I’m just amazed that a major browser has the Fediverse on the radar. Isn’t this kind of a big deal?
