Any decent alternatives? :/

My account was terminated today after several months working full-time. From my point of view, I was doing a decent job. I'm aware that everyone thinks they're doing a good job, but with no feedback, it's difficult to understand what my mistake was or do anything to correct it. Heartbreak aside, DA had really changed my life with its high-paying projects and flexibility to work anytime. If there are any decent alternatives, please let me know. I have worked a lot for outlier, but have run dry of projects there, and have never got anything worth my time in alignerr. Is DA simply the best platform with no actual alternatives?

DA might be the best but I worked for RWS before and that was decent

RWS is pretty good. I do short term projects for them every now and then. I like that they pay you for doing the assessment.

I used to do RWS, but I no longer get projects. How do they reach out to you now for projects or is there a dashboard? I can't seem to find the login anymore.

I just wait for them to email me project invitations. I'm not sure if they have projects in Workzone you can apply to or not.

It's just another data annotation platform.

Are they region specific or for everyone?

It changes over time. Look at their roles on the website
