My professional friends are telling me to post on LinkedIn more so I can get a job. Yeah, I've built a small following on there, but I hate that place so much.
Donning corporate drag to do what, exactly? Feed a machine that steals your IP AND your engagement?
@mayintoronto@beige.party Engagement farming for jobs is a special type of hell.
The only thing worse than having to write there is to have to read what other people consider "engagement".
Needless to say I support this effort.
@mayintoronto@beige.party it's so infuriating.
I run into the same thing with the ham radio hobby, where basically all information is disseminated via Facebook.
My brothers in Christ, I deleted my Facebook account years ago and when I finally gave up and tried to create a new one, Facebook refused to believe I was a human being.

My mountain biking group which had their own functioning website and forums did the same thing, moved everything to Facebook. In my case it was when I was transitioning out of active mountain biking with the group but it still would have been nice to keep in touch with folk, but not at the cost of joining Facebook
