On the side bar it lists the following:

  • [Matrix/Element]Dead
  • Discord

"Discord" is an active link, but the Matrix link is completely inactive. Not only is it inactive (which could have be excused as a broken link), but it is also manually labeled as "Dead", as if there is no intention of making it work. How can a community that is focused on privacy willingly favor a service that is privacy non-respecting when a perfectly functional privacy-respecting alternative exists?

Please stop using questionable logic to promote large companies, they do not need your free help for more marketing. There is even research showing it's false https://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/when-31-4-the-effect-of-gift-salience-on-employee-effort-in-an-online-labor-market in many ways https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/01461672231159781

There is no correlation between pay and quality work. I'm genuinely shocked this is even an argument held on a platform running on FLOSS.

Some might be more "convenient" on having an easier on-boarding, and even that is questionable, but regardless that's not the same as "better quality".
