Getting an H1B is is getting harder every year its expected to be less than 50/50 chance, so this website is more like; jobs that come with a chance to enter the lottery so that you can start working in 7-8 months

Pretty much.

There are a lot of people with work status though (e.g. F1 with OPT) so employers will hire them before sponsoring them for H1B.

H1B isn't the only visa available to work in the US. It doesn't take 8 months to get the visa once you applied.

IANAL but we're going through the H1B process now and I was told that we're hear about the lottery late May / early June, but the official visa issue is beginning of October. That's when the person can start working.

If employer really needs it, one can work remotely for a while.
