The use was mostly getting decent hits from recruiters and the feed when I opened the page didn’t want to make me vomit.

I am frankly at a point where I realized internet became an extremely toxic place full of dark patterns. I miss days of nerds making sites to share informations and hobbies.

Makes sense, I think. I, sadly, never remember LinkedIn not doing that. I think I can find a tweet or other journal entry talking about how awkward the site is every time I ever find myself using it. Shame, as I do want to keep in touch with friends from old jobs. Doesn't feel like a good way to do it, though.
