I joined LinkedIn about 12 years ago because some place I wanted to work at recommended their prospects have a LinkedIn profile. I wasted many years on LinkedIn.

I closed it down with Facebook, Twitter and Instagram about 2 years ago.

I wasted a lot of time trying to get people to connect with me. Once the pronouns were part of the profile I knew it was time to go.

Mass psychosis.

I do have some of the same connections here that I had there.

I used to have Keybase also. Keybase was really cool. Zoom killed it or maybe Stellar killed it. Maybe both.

The benefit of time on the Internet has shown me that where I go is good and where I leave is no good.

Not because I'm smart but because the group of people I'm attracted to are smarter than me and those are the ones I want to engage with.
