Or a big EU country, just not a in a city. In Spain(/Portugal) you can live like a king (villa, swimming pool, huge garden, cars etc) on 3-4k/mo. And if you are an 'ok' coder, 3-4k/mo is not very hard to get remotely.
Send me an email (see my profile on HN) and let’s see. But for anyone else ; reliability is a huge issue. People do resume driven dev and job-hop; as a company you really do not want people like that. I would like people who want to work for some amount corrected with inflation for 20+ years. And the people who want that really have no issues finding work. The depressing ghosting when someone finds something for $1 more is the reason why most people think it is hard. I do not want those people and never did (company running for over 25 years).
Maybe I'm not that good, but would love to find a remote job paying 3-4k...
