And at the same time, its arguably the least toxic of all social networks.
Yes, cringeworthy but at least not addictive! Its like facebook all those years ago, i can IM friends from highschool without having to pay any attention to the feed.
- aaroninsf 8mo agoYou may be on to something there! Perhaps the solution to breaking the destruction of society via engagementmaxxing may be to make things cringeworthy!
- protocolture 8mo ago>And at the same time, its arguably the least toxic of all social networks. Its "non toxic" insofar as people refuse to risk discussing controversial non employment related topics. Its super toxic insofar as "10 ways to herd your HR cattle to the productivity slaughterhouse" is just an average, uncontroversial self promo article.
- aenis 8mo agoI am not sure its super toxic. Does anyone take this stuff seriously? Its a bunch of people virtue signalling, writing cringeworthy pieces on their ground breaking ideas on leveraging AI, stuff like this can't possibly be read by anyone with an above-room-temperature IQ, no? LinkedIn can reliably be used as a high functioning moron detector. I mean, if there are people doom scrolling linkedin, they need help.
- nurettin 8mo agoIt is not trauma inducingly bad, but thoroughly disappointing. I went there a couple of weeks ago by accident and they were discussing how they wrote papers with the help of AI and how you should "at least make sure that the reference section is valid".
