Either way, I enjoyed that post. You're correct about people not closing their accounts because of fear. I'm in the same position right now. I never got anything out of my account. I'm a freelancer and I can't even get past clients to leave recommendations on my profile. They'd rather send me an email with the testimonial for some reason. Also never got any opportunities from LinkedIn.
The FOMO is super strong because even as I write this, I'm not convinced about deleting my account...
