Agreed. Looking at the postings I work in the tech stacks (React) and the jobs look interesting to me. But I’d need to work remote as well.

There are also high taxes in Europe so you must account for that. Then Europe salaries look even less attractive...
I'm not sure if you would consider me above medium (however during the last 16 years I learned a lot). The people I know who are much above medium have jobs. They don't look too much for them and are old enough to forget about traveling for work (house, dogs, kids, school).
I noticed that you only post about on-site positions. I'm too old for ad-hoc moving to another country. I don't speak German enough to do shopping. I could work for you but only remotely.
If you would consider remote employees, I'm sure you would get much more interesting applications. But then there is the problem from the first paragraph: if someone is looking for a remote position and some companies pay more, it's rather obvious that they will get most of the most interesting applications. The rest will go to those paying less.
