I haven't had to use linkedin for a while - wtf even is this

I haven't logged into mine for 3 years. I don't remember what was like then, but now it's nothing but people posting even the most menial achievements.

No hate, but all I see are posts of people announcing every little thing they are doing like they are at some press conference. Attaching Gandhi quotes to accomplishing one module of a course they are taking.

Inserting a story of willpower and facing adversity as they post the certification that 10000000 people have.

It lets you know exactly who is an adult child and definitely not to hire them. They basically cuck themselves into menial positions before they quit and get caught up in an MLM and try selling you "residual passive income" schemes.

Every time I log in I have people wanting to connect with me locally. Immediately after connecting with them I get spam sales messages about garbage that has nothing to do with me. Then I immediately unconnect. Rinse and repeat.

Sometimes I wonder if that crap actually works for anyone because it's seriously terrible.

100% agree OP. It's just corporate drones posting retarded pro-business platitudes about "customer success" and "brand loyalty" or patting themselves on the back for getting some moronic box checker certification.

You should have seen it during ghey terror month when it was just ****gotpropaganda non-stop the entire time. Absolute cuckery of the highest order.

haha you sound a bit negative.

I have one just in case people search my name so they can see something about me.

Also, some people do put pout legit content on it though, so yeah.
