Method notes

Each platform was reviewed through a fictional user account, a direct reading of public policy pages, an export request where available, and a structured support inquiry. Scores reflect what users can reasonably verify, not private claims by platform staff.

Editorial conclusion: the best worker experience is usually a portfolio strategy. Keep a public profile where audiences are, keep authoritative career records somewhere you control, and export data on a schedule.
