Fair point.  Reddit has traditionally been a good way of finding information 
on such things as there are subreddits for all manner of topics.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemmy_(social_network)

Lemmy is the FOSS equivalent of Reddit, it's got some really high quality 
content, it doesn't have the user base of Reddit but the signal to noise ratio 
is much better.

https://lemmy.ml/c/jobs

The lemmy.ml server is the one I use, I can't claim it's the best but it has 
worked well enough that I haven't tested any others.  It has a community for 
jobs which could be used for this.  While there are only 206 members of that 
community the number of people interested in replying is probably greater than 
this list.

Lemmy.world also has a jobs community.

There are some legal advice communities.

As Lemmy is federated you can subscribe to communities on other servers.  The 
lemmy.world jobs community has more subscribers.  I don't think there's 
anything stopping you from putting the same question on communities on 
different servers.

There are only 3 Linux apps for Lemmy, Lemoa is no longer maintained, Lemonade 
is in Rust which is a pain with crates, and Neonmodem is a terminal interface 
which is probably good for some people but not for a phone.  Fortunately the 
web based interface works well.
