LinkedIn. My email is bombarded with spam and LinkedIn messaging isn't free or unlimited, so they tend to be a bit more focused.

Even on my private infrastructure emails, the email burden is quite high. LinkedIn has maybe 3 messages on a busy day.

This is what my thought process was, but I’ve heard mixed responses. A lot of people are more familiar with outreach through E-mail vs LinkedIn, so LinkedIn can feel off-putting.
