>Europe is hiring:

On paper yeah but everyone I know who's applying to jobs is getting instant rejections before getting to the interview stage. Was also my experience a few months ago. The key word everywhere are "cost reduction" and layoffs and outsourcing are the norm.

>And companies in Europe still embrace home office often even in foreign countries

That's far from the norm. Most jobs (at least where I live) are in-office or hybrid. Full remote is super rare now. And fully remote from another country is usually B-2-B freelancing contracts which is not legal for one customer in all EU countries since it's considered dodging employment taxes.
