Mine are usually just remixes of my ancestors, for example ill just combine two random ancestors names and where one of them was from. Why yes random website I am Shadrak McNulty born in Littlerock Arkansas.
Right, I forgot that LinkedIn calls contacts “connection”, doesn’t it? I meant it in the sense of messaging them.
I have it for talking to past coworkers (in case I need a reference or want to discuss equity or something) and for talking to recruiters when I am looking for a job. My past two jobs I heard about via LinkedIn messages.
I guess that’s one strategy but that’s too much work for me. I just pay for unique email forwarding addresses to my main email and use fakenamegenerator.com for filling out fake PII. Also a password manager is key

If I need to fudge info, I tend to put it into a password database’s “notes” field for easier note-keeping, FWIW.
Not a full-on identity, but bits of info like stated name, address, etc.
Lol wtf is the point of linkedin specifically if you don’t join with your real info?
You just browsing people’s profiles? Friend requesting your other aliases?
It’s kinda like Facebook now, which is pretty strange.
Where’s rusty shackleford work?
Art Vandelay, Vandelay Industries, we import/export.
We also would have accepted Rusty Shackleford.
I heard he was thinking about quitting exporting to focus on the importing.

LinkedIn is one of the few sites where I use my real name. It is for connecting with past and future coworkers, so they get my real identity.

Why not present ones? And how do you know who you’ll work with in the future?

I was being dumbly pendantic. Thank you for indulging me though!

This is good.
I like to use password managers to make up names.
If I am feeling spicy. It is me. Imene Shayma. (A joke. Follow the link.)
