       I tried to search for "fediverse" on LinkedIn and, surprise surprise, I didn't find many promising results.Are there any companies, startups, or enterprises working to further the #fediverse somehow? I'm sort of looking for a new employer and would like working for someone who aligns with my personal goals.Thoughts or leads?

       @ayushsharma22 "fediverse" and "linkedin" feel like two mutually incompatible environments.I'm having a hard time imagining a company, startup or enterprise furthering the fediverse.

       @temporal @ayushsharma22 LOL I bet I am in the handful of "didn't find many promissing results" category.  People on LinkedIn or any other cenratlized social platform don't think about services the way of the fedi.

       @stunder @temporal @ayushsharma22 Similarly, people on the fediverse might not keep a LinkedIn presence.

       @Gargron I think this is much less likely. I believe most of people on the Fediverse do keep a LinkedIn account. The reasoning is:1. Most people need to work for a living.2. Most people on Fediverse are in tech, or tech-adjacent fields.3. Employers in fields #2 do look at, and/or recruit through, LinkedIn.How often one does check their LinkedIn account is another topic. Myself, probably every 6 months, to check up on friends.As a social network, I find it disturbing.@stunder @ayushsharma22

       @temporal @Gargron @stunder @ayushsharma22 The self-congratulatory auto-fellatio in every LinkedIn makes me gag.

       @Korgdisso @temporal @Gargron @stunder I still keep a LinkedIn profile hoping I'll find an employer who shares my non-work tech interests, the fediverse being one of them. But LI isn't what is used to be. Now it's more self-congratulations, virtue signalling, and has almost nothing to do with tech. Which is bad because we still need a place to connect professionally since normal people still aren't on the fediverse.
