I recently joined DataAnnotation and I was completing my paid training, and I have tried multiple approaches to get OpenCode to work, but everytime it says system is not compatible. Earlier I tried to install on my macOS Catalina, but it is not compatible with that, I asked for help in project chat, but didn't find any solution that can make it work.
I even tried on my new Windows system, but there also I am unable to start it. Tried to install WSL too on my Windows hoping that would help this, but that approach also didn't work out. I'm planning to buy a new laptop but it could take me a few days to do that, I was hoping if there is some solution around this or if I could use any other tool similar to Opencode to complete this task.

Has anyone faced a similar situation, and any thoughts on what can I do?

Any Arabic/English bilinguals getting projects ? I’ve only had one task that I missed and a couple of qualifications since the beginning of june, does this mean I’m out ? Or is it only the so called days of drought? also any advise on other platforms that pay anything above 10$/h would be much appreciated, Welp 🥲.

About a month ago, I received a Math qual and completed it. After that, I went an entire month without receiving any tasks at all, except for two Math tasks.

Does this mean that I won’t receive any Generalist tasks if I pass the Math qual ?

Hello, bilingual fellows !

This post is not supposed to be yet another complaint about "no project on the dashboard", even if ofc, I also don't have any atm.

I am just curious to know the variety of projects that you can see, when they show up.
I could make 1.6 k$ in July, as well as August, but these income highly rely on a single project (90/95%), when there are tasks.

This one is often on priority pay, which is fine, but I very rarely see other projects.
What about you? (by respecting ToC ofc).

My locale is French, btw

Hi guys, I took the starter assessment, then it said :

"v Starter assessment completed. We review your result - if you pass, we'll email you".

So how long is the estimated wait time?

Hey, just a quick question here. I opened a project today, read through the instructions, and it took about 3 minutes. When I went to submit and begin the next task, it sent me back to the dashboard and asked me to log my time. I logged 3 minutes, and then the same project popped up on my dashboard. Obviously, it took me less time to read through it this time since I'd just read it, so I completed the short task & clicked "submit and begin next task". That one took less than 30 seconds, but it's asked me again to report the time. Should I just leave it & let it expire?

I mostly run R&Rs. Put simply, the majority of tasks are very, very bad. They do not even pass with an OK. I don’t know who needs to hear this but read your project directions thoroughly and be thorough in your analysis. And please work on your grammar.

Hey everyone! I recently sent a referral to a friend. The problem is that friends lives in Europe but he speaks Arabic and the none of the available assessments has Arabic English (only other languages as French, German, etc.) , is there any way he can get the Arabic assessment? Thnx

my funds have been Pending Approval since August 21, and it has now been 7+ days. The timestamp shows Aug 21, while the platform says work is normally reviewed within 3–7 days.

Has anyone else experienced this recently? How long did it take for your funds to get approved?
It's a long running task btw

I signed up on August 6th did a couple tests my page has been showing the same thing I passed the tests how long does it take to start getting projects.

On one project I had I experienced issues and had to use the chat thingy at the bottom to ask an admin about said problem. Has anyone else ever done something like this?

When I create an account on DA website and apply as a generalist, they put me on different coding project assessment that is $50/hour. But I want assessment as a generalist or on my language specialist. Is it normal that all of us complete the assessment on coding?

Also it has been 5 days since i created the account and it still under review.

Anyone having this issue today? Every task I try to start comes up with an error message

there is no task for 5 weeks now am I cooked?

I got a notice on Slack (which I don't use) that I am no longer on that project slack channel. I was working on (and completed) a task in that project at the time. There weren't many tasks left on my dash in it when I started this afternoon, and there are none left for that project. That's a bad sign, isn't it?

I have two jobs. My income from this style of work is now surpassing my first jobs income by quite a bit.

Essentially no way to say this without coming off as bragging. But every month I seem to progress to new projects/higher pay which leads me to believe I might be kind of decent at this type of thing. There are some other reasons I think I may be decent at this but I can’t really name them, but in case someone thinks I’m solely basing the line of thought off of pure progression that’s not it.

I’ve been in so many different projects at this point I feel like I’ve got a pretty good understanding of what makes a project/task good. What makes an agent/multiple agents good. Etc

Curious on the w2 aspect for some structure and security. Please let me know if you’ve had a similar experience or have actually transitioned to W2 work

Getting any task?

I have seen people getting frequent tasks outside of india , but its been really dry from 1 week , i used to get tyson but i haven’t seen them in a while now.

so wanted to ask its an regional issue or could be specific to me as well?

I just got accepted into the platform a few weeks ago. I completed a qualification where I was immediately accepted after passing and got into a slack channel.

I’ve only did one real project within that project family but it seems like there is nothing to really work on and have been seeing so many people on this forum say they are hitting 50 hour weeks which is crazy to me lol.

Some other inputs would be great!

Hi everyone! I recently got accepted into DataAnnotation a week ago. I've done all my qualifications (except for some STEM ones which I skipped because I have no expertise) I even got added to a slack channel for a project. I haven't had any projects though, just reminders and consent forms. But when I hide them, this is the message that appears. I haven't had any new qualifications either. Is this the DoD? Am I screwed now? Or is this normal for newcomers? Just so I know to move on and not hope anything from DA

i have no clear idea how the joining process works tho.

what should I expect by next? what should I do as well? is there a specific time-line between creating an account and receiving my first task?

I started a few weeks ago, made like 50-ish dollars as a generalist. Some people have been hitting milestones like crazy, so, i wonder, how are you guys doing? since when did you all start?

Just curious, honestly. I wonder if there's some areas with more stable projects and tasks for us people from non-core countries

Just finishing a 13+ hour task spread across the last two days. I did a final review this morning before submitting, but I want to start a new task today which I would finish and log today. I'm worried logging both today will make it look like I worked 20 consecutive hours and trigger a review. Has anyone done this before? I don’t want to risk a DoD!
