I like your breakdown! Mine is pretty similar
- 10 years LinkedIn, some leads and interviews but no jobs
- ?? years Digg/Reddit: probably just a waste of time (just a lurker)
- Facebook, 13 years, some minor use but barely use it now. My wife uses it a lot more though with mom groups in our city which is nice
- HN: Got a job, and helped me upskill!
- Blind: exposed me to what is possible in the tech industry, 4x'ed my salary so this has certainly been the biggest benefit! Also helped understand the interview process
- Some private slacks: also helped me get in touch with a few insiders who helped me do well at some top company interviews and get offers.
I agree that smaller groups are better, it is just harder to find them!
