I have been working on a project for few weeks now. I've found collaborators willing to test the software until "official release" when they'll sub as my first customers. I am a couple of days away from releasing the early version and my laptop desides it won't turn the fuck on.

FML.

Is it only me or is it bloody hard to get into freelancing or remote work ?

I am a CS graduate, I have worked for a company that owns an online business. I didn't last a year with them for various reasons but let's just say work in my country is not so great. So I have been trying to get a remote position for few months now without a shadow of a success. I've built a Portfolio with a couple of projects while trying Upwork and some remote working websites with no luck.

What are your thoughts on this, what do you recommend me to do ?
