One of the main issues I had with LI personally (beside the already posted dark patterns) was the 3rd party scrapers who used the LI API to recreate their own listings with LI data. So this means if I changed the data on LI, the scrapers wouldn't update their own copies of the site. Even when I deleted my LinkedIn account I had to hunt down separate sites and go through emailing adventure to get the data removed. I want to be in whole control of my public data, that's why getting a domain and posting a blog is maybe more tedious but better at the end.
