There are so many platforms, tools, communities, recruiters, portals, lists, jobs boards... Which of them work, how do you feel about them, and are they worth the effort?
Linkedin only. I also subscribe to some freelance opp newsletters but nothing has come out of those. Yunojuno never has relevant work, worksome does via one of the major agency networks but it’s never panned out because they always want someone ft (plus it’s always out of date)
I wouldn't call any of them big winners. I have got most of my work through Linkedin and then YunoJuno. I've recently started using Shoutt. I like the concept and the platform, but I'm yet to get any leads out of it but i shall keep applying. It appears to be quite a tough market at the moment.
Hey MK, through having a strong network I guess and linkedin, I do plan to sort a CRM to get in touch with old clients + lead gen. Might make a tool for this...

Is shoutt mostly finding publicly posted jobs, or are they exclusive roles? And it's paid, right?
I was maintaining https://www.lancelist.com/ for these years ago, but it’s now sadly out of date.
Toptal has been most useful to me for “filler” positions,
Oh amazing!
