> Why so much fake enthusiasm ?
Lack of anonymity. Profiles on LinkedIn have more real information on them then any other platform, meaning that what you say might have real consequences to you.
Basically saying anything negative or critical might be used against you in the future of your career. (see Miranda rights)
Other platforms like reddit and Twitter don't mind anonymous accounts, which ironically invites more honest criticism and discussion, as it doesn't directly link profiles to professional careers.
- naveen99 5y agoIt might also be true that fake enthusiasm also suffers the consequences. People who don’t like fake may unfollow and not want to associate with them in the future. But yeah, confrontation is a more risky than fake.
