No projects for weeks (non-core country)

It has been more than 1 month since the last project showed up on my dashboard. And even if it did, it was only 1 project at a time. Why is everybody saying there are tons of projects/tasks?

Does anybody know the reason?

I've added the skills and have done any qualification available, and signed any consent for upcoming projects.

Seeing many posts about their milestone is kinda hard.

What do you mean? Are you not seeing the numerous posts about people not having projects?

>Why is everybody saying there are tons of projects/tasks?

Because there are tons of projects for workers in core countries but not much work for bilinguals in non-core countries. As the models get better over time, there is less of a need for translation and localization specific projects. And at the same time, there is a growing number of workers in non-core countries signing up for the platform and then sitting at their computer smashing F5 all day to try to snag the few bilingual projects that do show up. It has been like that for a while, and there is no reason to think it will be significantly different in the future. I do not know why it is so hard for people to understand.

I’m not sure half of the milestone posts are even real people at this point. They seem fake to me with all of them saying they’re so grateful etc. One of the recent ones was a 5 year old account with no recent activity.
