Hiring and recruiter outreach mostly happens on LinkedIn. Your unwillingness to use the platform is holding you back severely. I suggest you work on updating your profile and using it for job applications.

FYI there is a setting under Privacy that will prevent notifying your current connections when you make changes to your profile.
