Reddit - I don't post there any more, but sometimes I still end up there looking for answers and information.
BUT most of all:
LinkedIn - This platform is built to benefit companies, employers and managers, not the masses of people scrambling to use it to get noticed and build their careers. There are so many things that bug me about LinkedIn, but ONE is definitely that I have no real options NOT to use it (without suffering terrible economic penalties if I you know, don't want to give them my data). I get resentful and anxious every time I look at it.
If you work in IT, LinkedIn is just another spam source.
I deleted my account the first time they were hacked. So much fluff and fake networking. Any employer that relies on that shit is a place I don't want to be.
