I honestly forget I have a LinkedIn account most of the time. I think I've logged in maybe less than 5 times just to update things. Only emails I get are the usual Facebook things of asking if I know some random person in a different company or a higher up at the one I work for. Maybe a couple informing me of places hiring several states away for a decent pay increase, but it usually just falls into spam in my mind.

[–] biscuitfree@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 hours ago

Never used LinkedIn and when I've been pushed to I couldn't explain why I couldn't . After seeing few posts I'm glad my gut instinct is working well :p

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 4 points 11 hours ago

The lottery is a scam. Epstein won an 80 million powerball jackpot. Don’t waste your money

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 122 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I don't think we want to close the recruiter & c-suite containment system

It does a great job of keeping them all in one place so we can leave them to their fart sniffing and occasionally visit like it's a zoo

[–] criss_cross@lemmy.world 21 points 22 hours ago

The downside is they tend to feed off of each other and make things even worse. It’s part of why the AI hype train is so bad is they’re ping ponging their bad ideas off each other.

[–] greyscale@lemmy.sdf.org 65 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Can we stop forcing the unemployed to interact with it, please

I go there and I start making fun of AI chuds. It keeps adding more suggested chuds in my feed.

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 55 points 1 day ago

So, it’s recommending the thing you engage with?

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

I don't know that the unemployed are forced to go there, but I'd be lying if I said that I haven't gotten a job from LinkedIn

[–] monkeyslikebananas2@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah bruh they have their own private Social Network that is invite only. It’s like a $100m+ club.

[–] tophneal@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

Can we just separate the social/CEO containment parts from the useful resume hosting part?

[–] apex32@lemmy.world 25 points 1 day ago (3 children)

LinkedIn is worth many billions of dollars. No lottery would pay out enough money to buy it.

[–] baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

the pedophile pinata lottery where lucky winners get to beat pedophile billionaires with bats until they explode and drop money

So based on what we know out of the Epstein files, that's essentially all billionaires at this point.

In case you'd like to know just how fucked the entire Linkedin edifice is, now is once again the time to trot out this piece of trivia.

Windows users only: Hold down all four modifier keys on your keyboard, Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Win, and press L.

You can never unlearn this piece of knowledge. You're welcome.

I don’t use windows. Is this serious or are you joking? If true, this is pretty much like TV remotes that have a Netflix or Hulu button.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 4 points 1 day ago

I find those buttons (well, the YouTube button) quite useful. Shortcut to the statistically most used apps.

[–] Epzillon@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Its true, its how the weird special keys on certain keyboards functions. Its just a convoluted keybind integrated into Windows.

Linkedin is so evil and massively accelerates the class divide

[–] Tja@programming.dev 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I don't know how you guys use LinkedIn but for me it got me two job changes where I more than doubled my salary (via recruiters) and I find much more interesting technical discussions than on any other social platforms.

If you only follow recruiters and salesmen you get what you follow.

[–] entropiclyclaude@lemmy.wtf 19 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

How? Every time I log in it’s the dumbest thought leadership - and the same copy/paste gpt slop pitched as original insight.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 8 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Same as most social media sites: Stop following those people, find a community about a topic you are interested in (IT is overrepresented, but anything engineering related is quite well represented) and follow the people who post valuable things.

[–] Vile_port_aloo@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

This is it, drop the Chaff from the wheat 🌾 very different results.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 6 points 18 hours ago

i use it the way i'm forced to: i have an account solely used for responding to recruiters. i never use the site, i just have email notifications set up for messages.

[–] HeyJoe@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

This is one of the few good things having the same job for 20 years has been. Never needing to create a linkdin account. I've been told in the past it's still good to have, but i think that period of time is long gone. Glad i never gave them my info and time.

[–] Abbysimons@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

Finally, a startup idea I can fully support.😄

[–] Apytele@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

it's the only social media I have that still has my real name attached. I use it to keep in contact with old coworkers, keep and host my resume, and I like their daily games. It also makes it easier to spitefully apply to other jobs at 2am but then those jobs actually call me and I realize I don't want to have to learn 30 new people's names and a new set of nightly charting requirements all over again. Doesn't mean I don't threaten my boss occasionally anyway.
