Lots of people have never gotten a job on LinkedIn
Lots of people also have. You shouldn’t have to choose between getting the best job that you’re most qualified for, and forking over your very personal information to a company with a very recent history of leaking it by the millions.

True, but to even insinuate that it is a requirement to get gainful employment, which you seem to have done, is false. It sucks that Microsoft is turning the platform worse by the month, and that some employers fish in that pond, but it is not by any means the only way to get a great job. Some people have the luxury of favorable job prospects, and they can be more discerning about what they put themselves through to get in front of potential employers. That isn’t something they’re doing wrong or deserve admonishment for.
