    Is there a reason people don't share their socials on PH..? 😅🤔👀

    I've seen a lot of good profiles with no socials to connect on!

    Not sure, probably they are fake accounts? 😂 who knows? I have my socials displayed, feel free to connect if you're on LinkedIn! (that goes for anyone who reads this too!)

    PH connection request can at times feel a little superficial. I don't mind having my accounts on my profile but can see how others might be deterred from it.

    @nicolaas_spijker 100%. I keep getting hit with 'upvote our launch' :/ (in all my DM's.) I don't mind if the messages are polite, but 90% of the time they are not haha.

    I think this is what they will send newsletters to in private messages.

    Who knows. Might be that some of them are in search of cool products but don't really want to communicate much :D

    I have debated disconnecting my Twitter just due to the massive amount of cold DM'ing from upcoming launches. I don't mind if they are kind or crafted, but majority are not. :/ I cannot imagine how @rrhoover's DM's look 😵‍💫

    @esus I get a few on Twitter, most of the makers use LinkedIn to reach out. You also get all those straight punches for upvotes I believe 😅🥲🥹

    Made the mistake of adding my LinkedIn in the past, lots of DMs about asking for upvotes

    @entreeden I get them too.😅😅 I really like the people who ask for support or feedback instead of just an upvote 😄

    🥲 Well... for me, the issue is a bit regional. LinkedIn isn't supported where I'm from, and my circle isn't very active on Twitter So whilst I'm open to sharing my socials, I'm not sure which platform would actually be useful to connect on

    @aliceyu Ou, that's not cool! How do you connect with people then?? 👀👀 You could try the communities on other platforms like whatsapp and slack etc..

    There is some spam from strangers from PH asking for support for their project during their launch
