    It’s not that it’s more evil than other social media, it’s just such a shit platform. Everybody is posting their performative BS to try and look professional, it’s a massive circlejerk. Nothing of value posted there

      Dealing with that level of performative bullshit is genuinely agonizing to me. LinkedIn is like my idea of personal hell – everyone, everywhere, up their own ass and completely full of shit, all the time – and I have resolved to never have a net worth or job title that would necessitate using it.

      Posts on it are mostly garbage, but it still seems the best place to find jobs, at least in my own engineering experience.

      Follow better people. Just yesterday I saw CVE analysis, a discussion about concurrency in Postgres vs MySQL and a guide/infographic about architectures for multi region disaster recovery again with an interesting discussion in the comments.
