Credentials

Now that I've deleted my LinkedIn account, I've put together something similar for a CV on my site. Education, work history, and certifications.

Last month I wrote about why I'm leaving social media. LinkedIn was the one I defended strongest. It had a legitimate reason to exist, used it genuinely for years, recommended it to others, even did talks on it. Then I read about BrowserGate. Final nail in the coffin, regardless of how much is proven.

The problem with leaving LinkedIn is that it's where I kept my up to date CV: work history, education, certifications. That stuff is genuinely useful. It just shouldn't require handing it to a platform I don't trust.

So now it lives here instead. To be scraped by people and bots I might not trust, but at least I'm controlling what goes here, and I have full access to it.

Why put this on the site#

Because this is my space now, and it should actually represent me, not just my games. The credentials page is the professional side of things. If someone wants to know what I've studied or where I've worked, this is where I'd send them.

No LinkedIn required.
