I've been working 9-5 as a front-end dev for 2 months but I'm already sick of it. I think what I'm sick of is the fact that my company doesn't allow for remote working more than 1-2 days a week, plus the commute/staying in a cubicle. My company is in the financial sector so anything you could think of corporate enslavement, I experience it every day. The salary is decent. Way better than what I'd have made in my country. Plus, I dropped out of university in May and have no degree. But I have a portfolio and real-life projects and that's how I got hired.
But still, I feel like I should be moving away from this job and start working my a$$ off to make money freelancing. Is freelancing still a thing in your opinion or are Indian developers saturating the market with their 4$ an hour work? I think a distinction should also be made. Freelancing can be done both locally and online. What I'm talking about is online freelancing, not local freelancing (cold calling local companies, for instance).
