Don’t shit where you eat.
- Don‘t mix money with honey
-Don‘t mix spreadsheets with bedsheets
But then again, workplaces are still the top places were ( later married) couples have met on average.
I like this! Going to use it at work because it’s more work appropriate.
But feel free to eat where others shit. #AssToMouth
LinkedIn just isn’t for Jobs Anymore. It’s Now a Pile of Trash.
Ads about pushing your career, then more ads about how to create a better work life balance. And everybody seems to be a coach who tries to push their courses about the above mentioned topics. Thanks but I’ll pass.
My favorite thing is LinkedIn sending you spam advertisements disguised as real people chatting you. Every month or so I get a message from a spambot saying something along the lines of “Hello! My name is Diana. Have you heard of LinkedIn premium?”
Total trashfire of a website. Unfortunately, I still have to open it every now and then to adjust my profile and check for jobs, because it feels like everyone asks for your linkedin page when applying now.
I decided to check if it was any better than my current specialized job portal, which has enshittified a little in the last years. But Linkedin enshittification can’t be beat. It’s like prostitution level of job seeking for brainwashed people. What jobs are you applying for?
What jobs are you applying for?
Game dev, mainly. I use other websites to apply but there’s usually a spot dedicated for your linkedin profile, a lot of recruiters expect your portfolio to be on there.
I like all the recent graduates who have all of a sudden become experts in their fields and post on behalf of the company. Or those that are so humbled to let everyone know that they are taking a Coursera course.
You don’t have to actually browse the site. You put your resume on there, give out the link when asked and occasionally you get contacted by recruiters with an open position. You can turn off most emails so if nothing else at least you’re not bothered by it.
I’m not sure why people are so enraged by a website they can simply ignore most of the time.
Don’t worry office creeps who make unwanted advances towards coworkers, LinkedIn has your back. A new harassment platform for a new age.
Every app is a dating app if you’re persistent enough.
I found the love of my life using MS Word
I made her mine using the command line and sudo
The true story on which they based the movie Weird Science.
The true story on which they based the movie Her.
Even real life?
Wait…
LinkedIn is trash, it’s a glorified resume where narcissists go to brag about themselves.
Adding a dating feature is only going to benefit two groups of people: the ones who have the highest paying jobs, and people who are looking to be with someone for their money. For everyone else, this is just going to make LinkedIn more repulsive than it already was.
Edit - I’m lazy, ignore this and read the article
Where in the article did it say they’re adding a dating feature?
I thought it was for people to suck corporate cock and post terrible hiring stories.
Whereas I’ve avoided social networking sites (like FB/IG/etc) because I’ve always known most folks use it to brag about how much fun they’re having or what they just bought - LinkedIn is a horrible mixture of how much corporate KoolAid they can drink and their newest job/promotion.
I don’t mind being proud of friends who are doing well but seeing it in condensed milk form makes me sick and applies to both.
Right, so I’ve lived my whole life constantly being told that I can’t read social cues and that everyone else has this magical ability to understand subtext and all that. Which makes this article so confusing to me because it reads like the author is so oblivious to how people actually work.
The article can be summed up as basically:
- Turns out, people can find love by talking to each other and don’t need specially designed apps.
- But it can’t happen organically, you need to use some app to do so and look out specifically for love. Obviously.
- Relationships are entirely transactional and are based on your partner’s academic and business performance.
All with this creepy undertone that sexual harassment should be delegated to a footnote and subject to a cost-benefit analysis rather than, you know, avoided entirely.
Title made me go “ew”, your comment saved me clicking through to confirm… Thanks.
In case you want to date the most annoying people on earth
“No it’s not.” Me, reading this headline.
This has been happening for a long long time now. There is a reason why many women do not post a headshot on Linked In.
My wife was looking for a new gig 5 years ago, and was constantly getting tons of DMs from dudes who wanted to fuck. And her pic was pretty damn conservative/ professional. Just a headshot with a smile.
There should be some sort of way of flagging and shaming these creeps.
As i tell everyone else, LinkdIn is a glorified facebook for boomers. The only time i will ever update my profile is if I am looking for a job.
Facebook is Facebook for boomers.

Like I know tinder is deeply enshittified, but please. I don’t need this.
Was it ever for jobs?
Been an active user for well over 5 years and not one interaction has resulted in a job.
A bunch of people acting like they were hiring, sure.
I landed my last two jobs (and in that timeframe another four offers and probably a dozen recruitment pitches I seriously entertained to some degree or other) via LinkedIn, either via contact with colleagues or messages from recruiters. Granted that I’m in a niche specialty of a relatively small profession, but for me LinkedIn has been the most reliable source of job offers for at least a decade. Many of the “better” options really only serve fields like the tech industry, or are so dominated by listings for tech jobs that have appropriated my industry’s professional titles that it’s impossible to sort any signal from the noise.
