Originally I had linkedin in 2009 to keep track of my contacts (as that was what they were for at the time, afaicr).
Unfortunately I can't easily export contacts anymore, so I'm kind of stuck. The number of dark patterns linkedin uses is ... rather large. And every few months I come back, it seems like there's some new option to share my Personal data. Defaulted to "on" of course.
I keep meaning to hand-copy all the contact information I still need and delete my account, but it's a lot of work so I keep putting it off.
Originally you could get out phone numbers and e-mail addresses that way. The last 1 or 2 times I used it, I didn't actually get the contact info back out for most of my contacts.
