How hard would it be for you to move to a different country?
This was a tough one, especially because moving to another country can be a very complex task on a lot of different levels: social, personal, financial, bureaucratic, political, ecological.
I say very hard. The move I made, US to Canada, has been tough on me personally and for my friends and family. I love where I live, but having two hometowns tears your heart in two.
Thanks to everyone who responded!
@michel_slm@floss.social@evan I answered 'somewhat easy' but I got lucky (both with the work visa lottery, and being from one of the countries that do not exhaust their US permanent residency caps). Apparently the only one of the commenters emigrating to rather than away from the US!
(Process still not finished, haven't naturalized yet, and we did have some concerns both with politics and crime but the US would still be better than where we came from, worst case scenario. Now moving *again* is harder)
