Ask HN: Niche LinkedIn Platforms?

[ginkoutest]

LinkedIn is clearly the largest amalgamation of different professionals on a single platform. Oftentimes, however, it falls short when you want to either connect with or learn about professionals in a particular niche (real estate, investing, content creation, etc.)

Do you know of any LinkedIn-like platforms that cater to connecting niche groups? (Besides Discord/Telegram channels or subreddits).

And are there any niche LinkedIn platforms you wish existed for your professional endeavor or hobby? If so, what would it be?

Thanks for sharing. Why do you think Doximity succeeded versus physicians just networking on LinkedIn?
