Maybe Linked In was bad for me, or maybe I was using it incorrectly but... I deleted my account. I don't know if I'd ever make another one or not. I'm a self-t

Maybe Linked In was bad for me, or maybe I was using it incorrectly but... I deleted my account. I don't know if I'd ever make another one or not. I'm a self-taught developer with three years of experience, two in a single company that I still work for. To be clear, I actually do want to find a part-time contract on the side, but I'm loathe to create yet another profile on yet another page. I already have GIthub/gitlab ( which actually doesn't showcase the work I've been doing for the past two years since I can't put any of that code on there ). I deleted Linked In partially because I kept getting recruiter spam for my previous career (teacher), and also because I was tired of all the spam posts from different companies bragging how nice their gym is or what it's like to work for them. Quite frankly, I think my CV gets passed over a lot due to my age, and my experience. So yeah. I don't think Linkedin would even help me. Oh, and Linkedin looooovves data mining. They ask so many invasive questions that it gives employers a free pass on judging you without even interviewing you.
