I also really don't understand why their subscription is so extremely expensive for someone who is not a recruiter.

It's already a sycophantic cesspool of corporate drones repeating mindless PR. I unfollow everyone who re"tweets" feel-good memes or corporate crap and I have very few people I follow left over :) Critical discussion doesn't exist, if I comment anything that's not 100% celebratory of so-called company successes I get blocked.

Close second: conference apps.

They infuriate me. Data harvesting machines in all ways. Incredibly user hostile.

Example: making me scroll endlessly through attendee lists. Lack of good filters. Etc. Can’t download attendee lists.

I finally lost my patience and wrote a Selenium script to page through an app and extract everything. Worked well after some initial trial and error.
