I also think this goes for all the analogous versions of LinkedIn (like Tiktok if you're a creator, or Instagram if you're an artist). Not having a place to show off your work will slow down your growth and progress.
I'm a fairly private person but I've been considering the opportunity cost of it, and I think it's pretty high. Overall +EV: the risks of putting yourself out there are low (i.e. strangers think you're cringe), but the benefits are very high (new jobs/opportunities). I might just start embracing the cringe.
