Speaking of LinkedIn, I noticed that it doesn't federate also. Morever, some months ago I saw somewhere that ActivityPub could also be used to function like a federated job employement network, so I assume that if this would be true, people who use an ActivityPub account could also apply to the job positions posted through ActivityPub. Personally, I tend to avoid registering at thousands of websites, I like to do some exercise by walking or running to the job employement centers that the government maintains --- because these already have my "registry" anyways, my "worker card" --- or those in which I don't have to touch a web form nor an app in order to join the job opennings. In all cases I am also OK if I have to send an email, but only if I can do so using the standard email procedures, not some web form. It is true however that the country were I live (Brazil) seens to be neglecting my potential as a citizen who cares for the freedoms of the software that the very end/novice user uses. As Stallman once said, we don't have to go to the street make faces in order to get a living, we can do other stuff not related to technology, and this is also a thing I'm doing, I'm picking up any open position which doesn't require prior experience. _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list Discussion@lists.fsfe.org https://lists.fsfe.org/mailman/listinfo/discussion This mailing list is covered by the FSFE's Code of Conduct.
