Description

I've found that a lot of job applications these days required a LinkedIn URL, but they often don't validate that it is actually a LinkedIn URL. So, feel free to use this instead.I considered getting idontuselinked.in, but Porkbun let me know that the Indian registrar can be difficult to work with. I could be convinced to get it as well.
