Do you connect with interviewers on LinkedIn after the interview? Or once you get the offer?

Only after I join the company.

Just imagine - You interview with a company, add the interviewer on LinkedIn and then do not get the offer or take a better offer somewhere else. Fast forward 10 years, the same person now reaches out with a request. Would you feel comfortable based on your 30 min interaction 10 years ago? Or you see they are now at a new firm/level/role, would you feel comfortable reaching out based on your prior experience and would they even remember you? Focus on quality and not quantity. My 2 cents. Others may have a different perspective.

I believe in the philosophy of learning from other's experiences, success stories, mistakes and regrets while keeping in mind that similar set of life events may unfold into totally different ways/outcomes for others as there are always too many variables in the equation called LIFE. People may arrive at different destinations at different times while being on the almost similar path.
