As a programmer, ditching LinkedIn was a tough choice to make. It's basically career suicide in my field of work. I've accepted the fact that my privacy is more important than my career. I maintain work connections via email.

As for the other platforms, I don't use them. For YouTube, I use a program called 'FreeTube' which allows me to watch YouTube anonymously and turn off the comments. It does not recommend me videos either, so I am not affected by the algorithm.
