Of course for passport bros I also mean digital nomad as they're just the same with another label
My ranking:
1) Bali
2) Thailand
3) Manila/Cebu
4) Saigon/Da Nang
5) Poland (Warsaw/Krakow)
6) Tokyo
7) Ukraine (even with the war)
I have ZERO experience in South America so I have no idea how the situation is there

this map is usually very accurate for digital nomads in terms of numbers
in total terms if you count students, digital nomads, chads, rich kids and tourists i would say in Asia
Bali, Thailand, Japan, Korea
each of those for their own reason, are nowadays completely invaded by white people
Below that you have Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong
and after i would say Philippines, Taiwan, Cambodia, Laos...
and finally some almost unexplored places like most of Indonesia, China or Myanmar
although I don't think a place having 0 foreigners makes it automatically good, or the opposite
lots of factors to consider
Taiwan has very few foreigners compared to Bangkok, but I would expect a 50yo sexpat to do much better in Bangkok
