So far I have β¦
Deleted my Twitter account with my professional network
Accidentally deleted my personal mail list with everyone Iβve ever considered a close contact
Blanked my LinkedIn profile.
Iβve cut all ties to my professional network π something that was built up over a decade. Prospects suicide.
I never used twitter but FB deleted, LinkedIn is deleted. And I never talk to anyone so basically Iβve ghosted civilization. π
lol i did the same! and had the same realisation π oh well! guess we'll just have to live outside their system
If push comes to shove we can beg nostr for jobs π π
You won't have to beg, man!
after cutting ourselves off from society with nostr as our only connection to the real world, i don't think we'll be suitable for normal jobs anyway π it's already hard enough maintaining socially acceptable conversation around normal people
True. I vibe best with bitcoin and nostr crowd.
Welcome to the club π€π

Or stupid π
Accidentally deleting your mailing list was probably bad but I think the rest was good. You might miss some opportunities with LinkedIn but fuck those snakes, you can probably get the job you want by showing your work
If you're in an artistic line of work. In mine which is a rather commercial/human relations kind of job with deliverables that can't be put on a public portfolio for show, LinkedIn is absolutely vital to keep networks and contacts and to be on the radar of potential employers/business partners.
Do I like it? I fucking despise it. But there's no replacement for it.
Thatβs fair, it doesnβt fit everyone unfortunately.
Yeah damn it nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx makes a good case for cutting all those ties
Did the same a few years back. The only βsocialβ sites Iβm on are here and the Fediverse.
Who needs contacts anywayβ¦
Did it 15 yrs ago. World did not end. Still happy. Still talkin shid. Waaaay less headaches and sidequests
GG. Linkedin and Facebook are particularly cesspools of data harvesting.
Oh don't worry the NSA has a backup
Wow, that's a big step! I did something similar a while backβwiped my digital slate clean. It felt risky but turned out to be a refreshing start. It's like decluttering; you end up making space for new, valuable connections. Here's to rebuilding and discovering what truly matters! π
If and you received instructions, you should should share with the group the details
I think I'll put my LinkedIn account in the chopping block. I've already deleted my Twitter stuff. Still on FB because family won't leave it, but I'm working in them. Still have IG because that how my clients communicate, unfortunately. I'll get them too. Slowly, but surely.
Deleted LinkedIn a long time ago but then got a job where I was required to make a new one. Sucks but it is what it is. I only keep it bc if I get another job in sales, ill most likely be required to use it.
With a name like Karnage, I always saw it coming.
The old Karnage had to die so that the new Karnage could rise from the ashes. Enjoy your resurrection!
And besides, having no contact with friends or family is great for personal opsec.
Congratulations on your new freedom
