Imagine choosing LinkedIn over the everything app of freedom.

LinkedIn gives me the ick.

There are two types of people who use LinkedIn:

1. Self-important people desperately seeking attention by bragging about their accomplishments

2. Unemployed people desperately seeking work and trying to appear optimistic and happy

Either way, it smells like the carpet at a hotel conference room during an Amway pitch.

There is a 3rd! Workoholics who have drank the corporate Kool aid and idolize the First kind of person.

I hear men are using it to hit on women too

Well this I can kinda get behind. I'm all about finding love on the internet πŸ˜…

LinkedIn πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Laugh all you want. LinkedIn gets distribution.

Without distribution (an algo), you might as well be shadow-banned. Because the effect is the same.

Bots

False. All real.

Hey if you enjoy it, definitely use it! Looks like you're crushing it on there πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

I want Nostr to succeed. I'm not slamming it to shit on it. I'm pointing out critical issues preventing its mainstream adaptation. To fix them. So it can adopt quicker!

Nostr has the nuts and bolts to do so. And still may eventually.

I'd much rather move to Nostr now, rather than risk bans on LI.

But I'm also not going to post into the void while the growing pains are worked out. Especially when devs show no intention of fixing them.

Definitely no algo. Please. That's what I came here to avoid.

I’m here to pioneer, not grind away endlessly in the legacy system. I post on LinkedIn occasionally because it’s part of my job, but it sucks balls as a social network. Everyone on there is so artificial and boring.

100% dull

Damn thats irrefutable proof thats no bots definitely

We literally expose bot users on LI. 🀦

Look man, you sound committed to your plan. Do what works for you. I just could not be there, it feels like the online equivalent of soul-deadening fluorescent lights you can’t switch off.

I’m odd, i don’t want distribution

Maybe MySpace is better in this regard? Pretty sure Tom's still about somewhere.

Oh snap. Tom would be a great get for the #grownostr movement!
