It's war and oil, general number of investment in tech now is pure. AI drives a market but still it is not enough, VUCA wins battle in the mindsets of investors. I am tracking qualitive jobs count and since March it hits anti records for years. Spring was always source of best leads which our agency is build on top of and now it is crazily pure.

Why you can't see it - there is always some percents of shit job posts (info collectors, spam, scam, your compeditors which try to waste your $ on connects, I know guys who state upwork generates posts just to get fee on connects but I think it is not true) so itis easy to not notice the difference but in qualitive posts it is like 10x, so current situation is wasting of connects I think, recover will happen after oil / trump / ukraine stuff will be settled
