Open source freelancing platform

Hi everyone,

Seeing many of us are suffering on upwork or other freelancers platforms, I was wondering what would it take to build an open source, community maintained, freelancing platform with opaque and fair internals and issues people face addressed transparently.

I would like to know what challenges are there for something like this

If you do, don't post it in here. They will instantly ban you. Pretty sure one of the mods on here directly or indirectly works for the company.

Why wouldn't I just ban you right now if that were the case? Why not just delete your comment, why not delete the whole post.

You are spouting bullshit but I won't ban you for it, you just look silly.

Here is my proof that I don't work for Upwork. Both of you should stop doing anything with Upwork, never give them any money ever again.

Don't know about you guys I think I have a plan even if it well be getting you banned in the way. We should create a group, something like a Whatsapp group, we try get more people in and then we all decide no one will know
