Remove your 6000 connections except the people you actually know. Linkedin is what you make it, and you have made yours like Facebook.

- hliyan 5y agoAgreed. I only accept people from my own industry, and whenever I see more than two professionally irrelevant or just plain annoying posts from a connection, I just unfollow that connection. My feed looks fairly informative. I've disabled Facebook because it was impossible to do that effectively on FB.
- aikinai 5y agoWhy can’t you do that on Facebook? That’s what I do and it worked great. Whenever I log in, there are only updates from people that post actual life updates that I likely care about. I’ve unfollowed everyone else and Facebook respects that. My feed is normally only a page or two long and then they’re honest “that’s all for now.”
- AzzieElbab 5y agoLinkedIn is for recruiters not job seekers
- K5EiS 5y agoIs it though? No recruiters would use the site if there were no job seekers.
- mohanmcgeek 5y agoNot really. LinkedIn shows random posts with 2k+ engagement unrelated to your connections and they are the cringiest post that end with "agree?"
- K5EiS 5y agoLooking at my feed i only see posts my connections like (although these are often cringy posts) and pages i follow. I do use an adblocker, so perhaps the random posts you see are promoted posts?
- mohanmcgeek 5y agoI don't think so. These are just popular posts from "influencers"
- codegeek 5y agoI actually accept invites randomly at times if the profile looks interesting. But I also cull the list once every 2-3 months. If an unknown contact didn't add any value after initial connection, I remove them from my connection.
