    • Great set of resources. Many are of interest to wider audience not just for remote workers. You may target a wider audience.

Objections

  • Poor design, hard to read colours and contrast

    From 3 comments
    • because no-one else has mentioned it: "AHH MY EYES!!!!" Good idea. Terrible design. It needs major UI help, but i will definitely be going through it for resources.

    • Yup, the colors are jarring. The contrast is very poor. My eyes hurt! I guess the UI isn't that bad, but the blue boxes with white text need to be replaced.

    • Some feedback: All of your titles are "Remote stash" instead of what they're really about, so it's hard to find tabs if you have multiple open. "Work hard anywhere" doesn't seem…

  • Dominated by Indian sites and crew is not accepting anyone

    From 1 comment
    • Umm crew is not accepting anyone at this time... And this curated list is full of Indian sites - am I to compete with that market? I think not.

Requests

  • Add more resources such as job boards and project management category

    From 4 comments
    • Just stumbled upon the following job agregator, you might want to add it to you list:…

    • https://whoishiring.io should be somewhere on that list, it does pretty good job in aggregating programming jobs. And you can easily filter just remote jobs there.

    • Nomad Projects (http://nomadprojects.io) would be good to add as well.

    • A category for task management or project management would be good.

  • Show alternatives or paragraph explanations per listing

    • Agree that it's good to have 1 recommended option; but think there's also value in alternatives... maybe have the recommended, but then include other options afterwards; so you…
