I suspect that since a quarter of my fellow co-workers got the pink slip a few weeks ago, tat I too will get one soon. I haven't updated my resume in a while and would love if there was a self hosted LinkedIn alternative or something. Anyone got any idea if that's a thing yet?

ok, but what about the selling point for recruitment firms that "you don't need to pay $190 a month to unlock Sales Navigator Advanced for each of your recruiters"? or is that perhaps a feature, sorting out the weeds who can't afford the monthly fee?

$190/month tax deducted is NOTHING for a firm making $30k/role filled at the bottom end. You don't really care about those kinds of low-level tax deductible expenses while you're profitable. This is why no businesses switch to LibreOffice on cost grounds, even though it's fine and saves hundreds per year per seat on a contract for Office.
