I have been posting business-related content (curated news about famous entrepreneurs) to LinkedIn for over a year now. At first, I thought it would be a good opportunity because no-one else was curating news in that way. But once the pages got to about 3000 users LinkedIn deleted them all without proper explanation. They deleted my Donald Trump page first (leading me to think they were anti-Trump), and then when I complained they deleted the other six pages I was curating [1]. After a month of discussions, I was able to get the pages back, but the signups had dropped by half. But I persisted, only to have the UI change and for signups to be down 70% from before. Instead of 10,000 followers for Elon Musk news, I should probably have 30,000 if they hadn't meddled with it. Meanwhile, crappy clickbait is shared all around the site. I don't know why I bother to be honest. The site is useless for content creators.
