"the "People You May Know" list in Linkedin, FB etc"


          

can we just kill that feature already?

if we got 55 mutual connections on linkedin, and you and i haven't connected yet, there's a reason for that.

Also you should remove syncing of contacts and send requests to remove prior contacts. Privacy.

I don't FB/Tweet or anything on my phone. The only platform I use on my phone is IG. And like you said:


>turns out the shit was going through my contacts and my call
>history.
>

Same thang. Somebody who drunkenly put their number in my phone. We've never even talked other than a one time "I have you locked in" text.

It's time to unplug from ALL this shit, man.

Back again for the first time.

which was preceded by a year of playing around on it and another year away from it.

This return though follows me having requested FB delete my previous account. So, I started fresh and have only friended family and real life friends (people I talk to away from social media). Went from over 1k "friends" to about 100. And that's a very liberal estimate.

Basically the things you like, groups you're part of, the places you've checked in, and the topics you post about

when I need to update my profile before searching for a gig.

Otherwise, it's not on my phone and I don't care to access in times other than what I just stated.
