I am worried about the kind of things we will see on Metaverse will make us think LinkedIn is a paradise

The guy’s proud of his family. That’s awesome. If you think this is cringe worthy, you need help.

LinkedIn is slowly turning into Facebook. COVID Is a big reason for that. firms pushing all the big talks about work life balance (without really acting on it) but individuals have taken that to heart with the interpretation that I can mix work and life translating into sappy, cringeworthy posts and boasts on LinkedIn

People are getting way too comfortable on LinkedIn. I only want to see what sorcery you did to get someone a job (like the manager who sent a ‘letter’ to another manager to get someone a $450k/year job)

Agreed. I recently saw a post where a coworker (same company, not department) wrote a long screed about how she had a crappy childhood and overate to compensate and now has to deal with body shaming at work whenever she eats in public. It’s a bit much for linked in. Nobody cares

I always report these types of posts to LinkedIn as “not interested in this topic”. I can’t stand the “here is some non-work related anecdote about my personal life” posts on LinkedIn. It always tends to be some sales or insurance agent type of person trying to “connect” with others
