I like it, but it's a dick move to require that the resume be hosted at a remote URL. Lots of developers don't have their CV on a website, and one of the strongest devs I've met doesn't even have a LinkedIn profile.
Support a file upload or just Base64-encoded data and you've got something here though.

Twitter is even worse. I don't have twitter, I don't want twitter, I don't need twitter and neither does anybody else. On top of that, twitter is dead.
It has a built-in filter for the poor folks that use these proprietary services like Twitter X, Microsoft GitHub, and Discord Username.
I wouldn’t apply anywhere asking exclusively for these platforms instead of something generic like: instant messaging, public code forge(s), weblog/microblog(s). I would encourage you, reader, to ask around & make sure your org isn’t hiring based on proprietary service usage. Heaven forbid your applicant is from a place under US sanctions & literally couldn’t use the services even if they wanted …or like your candidate has any values about privacy.
