Can I hire someone to sit on LinkedIn to scroll through all the unsolicited opinions about AI, ICE, birth, death, and marriage announcements, random (totally not interesting, smart or funny) thoughts…and when you see an “immediate, freelance-copy gig” posted by an actual person, you’ll text me a screenshot…while I’m out in the world, living life w the 3D people? That would improve my job search, AND my quality of life exponentially. Seriously, DM me, and name your price.

Honestly, Instagram has become the new LinkedIn for creatives.
That’s where I discover talent, not through corporate posts and empty buzzwords.
If you want to be found, post your work on Instagram.
LinkedIn just feels… forced

For me, the best thing about finding a job wasn’t even the salary (though very much needed), it’s not having to look at that god awful site until the next layoff.

I’m glad that it’s not just me who’s tired of all the slop posted on LinkedIn for attention. So weird.

@AD1 I get lucky w those “immediate need” gig posts here and there. Aside from that, your efforts/results are familiar to me.

I’m so sick of ChatGPT-generated think pieces on LinkedIn by people who can’t be bothered to think and write for themselves, and who think no one can tell. We can tell. I promise.

The unfollow and not interested options have helped my feed on LinkedIn. It’s not perfect, but cuts a lot of noise.

I actually started clicking the “not interested” option, and also reporting ads. At first, I felt powerful, and that lasted about ten minutes. It felt like fruitless effort. Because the nonsense posts just kept coming anyway.

Hilariously if all the AI blowhards on LI were right, AI could do this for you.

No this is a bad take. You can and should be super critical of the super onlineLinkedIn people.
