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
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.
So, it’s recommending the thing you engage with?
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.
Nah bruh they have their own private Social Network that is invite only. It’s like a $100m+ club.
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.
The lottery is a scam. Epstein won an 80 million powerball jackpot. Don’t waste your money
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 use arch btw
W is word
X is Excel
O is Outlook
P is PowerPoint
T is Teams
D is one Drive
N is one Note

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.
I find those buttons (well, the YouTube button) quite useful. Shortcut to the statistically most used apps.
Its true, its how the weird special keys on certain keyboards functions. Its just a convoluted keybind integrated into Windows.
F is for friends who do stuff together
It didn’t open :(
Try Alt+F4

Holy shit this works lmao
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
LinkedOut
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.
How? Every time I log in it’s the dumbest thought leadership - and the same copy/paste gpt slop pitched as original insight.
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.
This is it, drop the Chaff from the wheat 🌾 very different results.
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.
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.
LinkedIn is worth many billions of dollars. No lottery would pay out enough money to buy it.
There was no joke behind the means of purchase. OOP just didn’t think about that. Nuking LinkedIn would be funny tho
A nuclear warhead is really expensive and out of the reach of civilians. There’s no way the OP could get a hold of one to use on LinkedIn.
I heard Iran can develop nukes really quickly, even after having their facilities completely destroyed just a few months ago.

Linkedin is so evil and massively accelerates the class divide
