alt Hacker NewsI'm not convinced that LinkedIn is doing anything but hurting me. I should probably delete mine.
The only reason I haven't yet is because a lot of job postings outright require a LinkedIn URL. I've considered putting something like `https://linkedin.dont.have.one` or something, but I don't know if that would immediately put me in the reject category.
Before anyone says it, yes, there really are a considerable number of job postings that have "LinkedIn Profile" as a required field.

I usually only go on there when I'm looking for a job or trying to update my work history/fluff up my own ego.
Sometimes I'll post like "I made this"
I still think about that Cybertruck post and the $2K/mo on salad, pretty sure it was satire but funny
I'm not looking for a job (run my own firm), but I noticed a few days back that LinkedIn has blocked my account, one that I haven't logged in to since 3 years or so, and won't let me log in unless I submit a government ID through Persona.
Well that's a bye-bye for me now, tata.
And they have daily placemat style games. Delightful. Solve maybe an NP complete shape filler then do some word juggling.
