I dropped Instagram, and couldn’t be happier to have left that cesspool behind. No [...] LinkedIn, [...]

Unfortunately not having any presence on LinkedIn makes it quite challenging to find professional-type jobs. :/

True. I've also decided I hate the professional world.

Wait, is that why I struggle with this? I’m an engineer and I just don’t really get non-forum style social media. I can kinda grok tumblr, but lemmy/reddit is really all I’m good at

Tons of job listings have barely any presence outside of LinkedIn. And yeah, quite often employers will want to see some kind of professional something online.
