Appreciate using basic HTML. I hope there is more of this on the web. > get job offers without stalking, discrimination and distractions Is this a real problem with LinkedIn? I feel the real value add of a job posting site will be filtering out recruiter spam. Will you curate companies who use third party recruiters and agencies? One more question. What do you feel is the catch with HTMX ? The main one to me seems to be the 10k bundle size. That’s minuscule compared to typical web packages, but hand written HTML / JS will involve 0k extra bundle size.

"stalking" may not have been the best word there, I'll change it to "spam". > I feel the real value add of a job posting site will be filtering out recruiter spam. Will you curate companies who use third party recruiters and agencies? I was thinking of the following approach: companies can directly search for candidates. They'll be able to tick a checkbox that says they're OK with it if there is a third party involved. That third party can be: - a company that hires (for example) developers and assigns them to temporary projects. I searched for a proper term: I think it's called a temp agency in English. This is one of the examples I mention on the "manage" page. - a recruiter. This would mean a shift would take place in who decides to involve a recruiter. Instead of companies, it would be individuals who want help in their process of getting a new job. I've been lucky enough to be in a position where recruiters ended up putting 3 new job offers on my table with minimum effort from my end: a fantastic experience. Hopefully https://withoutdistractions.com/cv https://withoutdistractions.com/cv will give many people this kind of experience, but I was thinking: what if you, even with the spam-free character of the platform, end up getting 20 messages from 20 different companies? Total luxury "problem", but then it may make a lot of sense to let a recruiter handle some things for you. > What do you feel is the catch with HTMX? For me it took a while before I started "getting" htmx. Once everything you write is HTML snippets, it may not be immediately obvious to your brain where your requests are happening, etc. > the 10k bundle size [is] minuscule compared to typical web packages, but hand written HTML / JS will involve 0k extra bundle size. That's true! But then I'd have to manually write logic to put responses into the DOM, which HTMX handles for me. HTMX probably does way more than I personally need, but 10k is already amazing compared to your typical Angular app. And the docs are super clear!
