FlexJobs is a real, long-running service and this is not a hit piece, it solves a different problem to Nomaders. FlexJobs screens listings so you do not meet scams. Nomaders is a remote job board that reads listings so you know where the employer says you have to live. Here is the difference, plainly.

Most boards, FlexJobs included, use one word, remote, for jobs that are worlds apart. Nomaders only applies the work-from-anywhere label when the advert itself says you can live in any country, and it keeps the exact sentence so you can judge it yourself. Out of 12,983 live roles today, only 514 clear that bar. Real examples, taken from live listings right now:
“Source listing states candidate location: "Global"”
“Source listing states candidate location: "Global"”
“Source listing states candidate location: "Global"”
“Source listing states candidate location: "Worldwide"”
