Master's degree after an online degree

From the 1st of January 2023 don't give a paper degree but a "Digital Degree Certificate". It was a bit disappointing.

For those who finished an online degree from UMPI, Metropolia, WGU, TESU, etc.:

1. Did anyone enroll for a master's degree outside of the mainstream TESU/WGU/UMPI/etc. ?
2. I saw online master's programs from Nordic countries. Free for EU citizens. Does anyone have experience enrolling there?
3. Have you heard of people getting past the immigration requirements with those degrees?
4. Did people get government jobs with those degrees? Especially the ones where a degree is a "check-the-box" kind of requirement. In my country, it's mandatory to have "any degree" for 95% of government jobs.
5. Did anyone get an English teaching job in Asian countries such as China, Vietnam, Indonesia, etc.? They all need "a degree" as far as I know

I have 2 bachelor's degrees from UMPI. I went on to grad school right away. I have attended 3 different universities for my graduate students. I completed my MBA and am now completing my second master's which I will finish in November. I attended 2 typical RA American universities for my MBA. Once I completed my MBA, I did attend WGU for 1 term and hated it. I went back to where I finished my MBA. 

Lots of people work for various governments with degrees from UMPI, WGU, TESU, etc. They are RA degrees so in the US and much of the world there's no problem with them.

Immigration is about far more than a degree. It's rare that a degree alone will get you immigration. This will vary from country to country and the policies change often. 

What exactly are you looking to do? Your post if kind of all over the place. Reading this it sounds like you're trying to figure out how to do multiple things which may or may not work depending on your specific situation.
