As someone who's been on Xing from the very beginning (when it was still called OpenBC) and has been on LinkedIn for sometime my opinion is this:
You can accuse Xing of many things but not that they are behind LinkedIn. I mean regarding the technology, UX and overall experience I have no complaints and I find the community there much more pleasant than LinkedIn. That's one reason I'm still on Xing, but quit LinkedIn some time ago.
What I criticize though is their use of dark patterns and tricking their users into accepting things they most probably don't really want. In that regard they are more akin to Facebook and maybe even worse than the recent LinkedIn.
