12-16 connects - too much

Hi
On the list of projects, it's not visible how many connects are required. I skip projects that require 12-16 connects to apply. Perhaps it would be better to restore the display of this requirement? Personally, I don't send proposals to projects that require the use of 12-16 connects. I tried a few times and concluded that it's simply not worth it. Moreover, considering that only about 10% of the submitted offers are viewed by the recipient, it really isn't worth sending applications to such projects. Sometimes, some even boost their submitted offers to around 50 connects. I hope that the person looking for a professional will review all the offers.

Spending 50 or more connects on a proposal sometimes worth it because Upwork returns back the boosted connects if the clients didnt interact with your proposal.

So they have disappeared! I was wondering whether I was imagining things ...

 

Dear Upwork, 

Please bring back the connects on the first page (the list view). It's such a nuisance having to click on each job to check.

Hiding connects. Another trick at Upwork Casino to milk frelancers even more.
