Everyone is easily replaced. You're not some unique snowflake.
Skilled workers are not easily replaced. I am a programmer and we regularly have job postings open for over a year at my work.
I hate to break it to you, but that's not for lack of skilled applicants. Companies leave those positions open so they can say they're trying to hire, just so they get more work out of you.
Source: I manage about 110 engineers in a global company. We're always 'hiring '.
I think you were downvoted just for saying something ppl don't like. Half the jobs posted out there don't actually exist tho, posting ads is also used as cheap marketing to seem like the company is growing and healthy, positions that are posted for legal reasons and aren't really open, etc., your reason included.
