The only things that happened when I deleted my LinkedIn account were the following: 1. I stopped getting as much spam, especially from shady tech recruiters and randos from India trying to "network". No great loss there. 2.

Apparently these managers think that LinkedIn is the internet the way some boomers do with Facebook.
