LinkedIn rolls out its freelance marketplace to compete with Fiverr and Upwork
- siruncledrew 5y agoAnd pretty soon Linkedin will also be charging 20%+ fees for freelancers, similar to Upwork/Fiverr, and like what Apple and Google do with their app stores. This would be in line with Microsoft's DNA to focus on merging Linkedin with their other business tools, like Office365, Teams, etc, to create an additional walled-garden SaaS product. Which, following the Microsoft way, means Linkedin will probably get even more clunky and frustrating to use in due time.
