[digiKam-users] LinkedIn user group...

Gilles Caulier-4
Hi all users,

Due to Google+ shutdown in few weeks (thank Google for the support in long term), I tried to found a professional social network alternative, more serious than Facebook, and enough mature. As i'm registered to LinkedIn since a while without to use it really, I explored better this area to discover the Open Source community and i was surprised to see that mostly all my contacts was already registered in this social network.

So, i created a new digiKam users group to LinkedIn :

https://www.linkedin.com/groups/12186015/

If you have an account to this social network, you can join the game.

Hi,

Well the mailing list and SN group can be seen as duplicate. The advantage of SB group is enormous as you can manage plenty of different topic group at the same place.
The ML is only a place for this topic. that all. To share data it's limited, to found previous post it's complicated. ML is good but not perfect...

With the SN, users group do not have these limitations.

Everybody use a SN, more and less and are popular. If a project want to be popular (from user viewpoint), it must be registered in SN.

G+ will disapear in a near future. Even if this SN was really comfortable to use (better than FB for ex), with plenty of geek users inside, it has never switch the proof of concept for me. It work there are users inside but how many people use it really ? I'm sure that it's less than FB.

I dislike FB, for many reasons. The GUI is become weird in time. The privacy is the hell. This SN is not serious.

At least, Linkedin is a SN dedicated to work, to find a job, to share experiences. I know that M$ acquire the platform few years ago... and then ?

I asked the German Wikipedia for LinkedIn, especially the criticism. LinkedIn
sends unsolicited invitation emails to non-members, if not responding, re-
prompts. I have already received 2 invitations from you, which you probably
did not even initiate. ((:-)) It is interesting, to an e-mail address, which I
used perhaps 1 or 2 times provided. LinkedIn probably read your e-mail
history. I think there are no serious social networks in this world.

I like discuss.pixls.us 
It is mobile friendly and it allows to reply via email.
Plus there are many photographers over there already.

+1 for discuss.pixls.us. There's good help for Rawtherapee &
Darktable (I use these) + there are already a bunch of other forums
open-source.

Hi, I fully agree. When I was on LinkedIn, I saw in my "proposed
contacts" at least one people I didn't want to see(for personnal and
complicated reasons I won't reveal here). The only way to make the link
was to read her address book(or worse). I write "worse" because, yes, I
couldn't think they could do such a thing than reading mail, but I read
or heard something about this. I though it was on this list but after
verification, it seems not. It was about an attorney service. They don't
have the right to talk to the opposite side, or it could create very
bigs problems. However, the opposite side received an invitation to join
this attorney's network. It created huge problems, they had much work to
calm the hurricane it made in the justice institutions. The only way to
make the link between both of them was to read mails where opposite
side's adress was written in the attorney box.

I closed my account(after having send a mail to my contacts that
probably did have no effect) when I realized that this site with a
professional layer were in fact just like the other ones and I don't
understand why so much activist geeks are on it, especially because I
don't have the feeling that employers use it so much in france(but I may
be wrong).

LinkedIn indeed tend(ed) to spam others, based at least on the address book of
members.
To the best of my knowledge, I do not have an account on LinkedIn. They seem
to agree, as I used to get regular invites to join LinkedIn, supposedly from
members/through members. Although that practice seems to have calmed down
lately.

So, please do not replace this list by anything like LinkedIn, until such
methods are abolished.

Remco

it looks like pixel.us runs a https://www.discourse.org/ instance,
that's great :), the only thing what is missing is the mobile API to
access it with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.discourse.

According to reviews this app is just a webview of discourse. Which
isn't bad, but you can just as well open it in your favorite mobile
browser (which works pretty well, apart from the terrible typing, which
is unrelated :) ).

We'd love to have all you wonderful people on pixls.us! I'd like to think we are a less creepy platform than LinkedIn as well. We have the social login feature and a bunch of good people!

Re: LinkedIn user group...

I mean, LinkedIn is a reasonably large social network for work-oriented stuff, so it certainly can't hurt to have a presence there. (I hate Facebook, but there's no denying there's a large potential for outreach there).  Besides, many folks responding in this thread are already pretty active on pixls.us. :)  If you're not, come join us!

@Simon Frei, writing is a bit more comfortable in the app but the main point is, that you have all your discourse in on app, easily accessible and notification pop up only there if you want (as I want)

According to reviews this app is just a webview of discourse. Which
isn't bad, but you can just as well open it in your favorite mobile

jdd - you have previously used this image as a Gravatar (https://en.gravatar.com/), so using the same email we find the gravatar you've publicly uploaded (at some point in the past) to that service.  Welcome aboard! :)

oh, yes, may be, this image is also on my web site, but it's the first
time I see it used automatically, great :-)

Re: LinkedIn user group...

Andrew Goodbody
In reply to this post by Mica Semrick
OK, I have just been playing about with https://discuss.pixls.us/
My problem with it is mainly that it seems to be just a forum. I can
find no way to subscribe to a category in order to get emails for new
topics. This makes it a pull only website. That is too much trouble for
me. I need push so that things I want to know about get sent to me and
land in my email inbox. I have better things to do than visit a bunch of
websites, click refresh on each and try to work out what has changed.

Or am I missing something?

Otherwise it all looks good. There is useful stuff on there.

Andrew
