I dropped Instagram, and couldn't be happier to have left that cesspool behind. No Facebook, no Instagram, no Tik Tok, no Snapchat, no LinkedIn, no no no. I'm done with the bullshit. Need to contact me? Then you probably already have my phone number, text or call. Don't have my number? Sounds like you probably don't need to get in touch with me, then.
Unfortunately not having any presence on LinkedIn makes it quite challenging to find professional-type jobs. :/
True. I've also decided I hate the professional world.
Wait, is that why I struggle with this? I’m an engineer and I just don’t really get non-forum style social media. I can kinda grok tumblr, but lemmy/reddit is really all I’m good at
Tons of job listings have barely any presence outside of LinkedIn. And yeah, quite often employers will want to see some kind of professional something online.
How are you going to know how to vote if you don't listen to MAGA spam in car crash/police shooting comment sections?
