When did LinkedIn in become an even shitter version of Facebook?? I just had a video about a strawberry stem remover pop up in my feed. Why??? Can we go back to just plain old boring job postings?

And omg the comments on the articles. So cringeworthy. Just people trying to sound smart and professional. “I agree Gary, that’s why I always choose data driven campaigns for my clients.” Jesus

Dumbest conversations def happen on Linkedin. Some woman in my network posted a picture of Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In (which she got from other women at work) around the same time NY Times released their investigation about how Facebook dealt with Russia. A guy praised Google for some transparency campaign around the same time outlets reported on Google threatening&punishing the employees who led the walkout. People constantly post about how proud they are to have become more productive.

if i'm on linkedin, it's because i'm desperate for work. if i wanted terrible, out-of-date memes made by corporate executives i'd whatsapp my dad. don't even get me started on the steve jobs worship

How do you curate your feed? All I get are c-suite white women humblebragging about speaking on a panel of c-suite white women, to an audience of c-suite white women, about the power of women in business.

YES TO THIS EXACT THING. An ECD said I should start using “a mix of industry and non-industry content” to boost my name as I’m applying.
Can’t I just use a mix of “my qualifications” and “my portfolio?”

Next I’m going to (very vague description of what’s next but overall positive vibe). Some sort of cheers that includes the company name."
