    WTF does that have to do with anything? Isn't this whole discussion about how the WMF shouldn't be based in the fricking most overpriced city they can find?

      Yeah you're going to get amazing executive candidates in Wales for eg., background in sheep herding and farm management will translate to running Wikipedia quite nicely I think.

    Honestly, not that much higher...i think? I'm a data science person so not dev, but feel like salaries above 65k or so not hugely common?

    £44k according to the April 2020 release of the Annual Survey for Hours and Earnings by the Office for National Statistics. That is the figure for "programmers and software development professionals", anyway.
