 I mean, really, LinkedIn. The biggest bullshit generator on the Internet. The place where people brag about cooking food in a coffee pot in order to save the company money. The place where AI writes posts—with full LinkedIn approval—and nobody notices. That social network still has longevity. If LinkedIn still exists, so will Twitter in the next few months. 11 comments
@atomicpoet you do realize - - why not delete your accounts there - - - - yes, i did - - 5 years ago 🤓 @atomicpoet ...Had Linkin remove me because all they would is harass me with false and fraudulent info because trying get me to add on and pay for doing nothing, used 2x in many years... @atomicpoet It used to be one of my favourite platforms before turning into Winner of the "Easiest Platform to Quiet Quit" Award a few years ago. Thank God I don't have to rely on it for anything! @atomicpoet I see very little equivalence. You’re correct if you look at just the social feed of Linkedin. But it has a very effective (and profitable) ad stack with multiple different products (ads, sales tools, HR tools, recruitment tools) It is also the defacto professional “graph” with the majority of people are who they say they are. And owned by deep pocketed MS, although is profitable on a YoY basis. Twitter has none of this. Not saying I like Linkedin but not sure this is a great take.  @atomicpoet I agree with others, LinkedIn kinda has capitalism working for it whereas twitter just has narcissism working against it I hate that I need to have a #LinkedIn profile in the professional world to be taken seriously is just absurd. I need to set up some bragging profile with my public CV just to tickle some fancy of a corporate idiot. It is one of the worst platforms to ever come into existence, and I say that after #Tiktok made people eat tidepods. @atomicpoet LinkedIn is the most effective recruitment and career development tool on the internet. There are very few people active in the LinkedIn social graph beyond liking their employer's status and posting personal milestones, which is why it's so bloody weird but most people aren't on LinkedIn for the discourse. @atomicpoet  @atomicpoet #myspace survived a long time after it's deadblow. So did Geocities as Geosombie cities. |

@atomicpoet to be fair, Microsoft owns LinkedIn and monetized it in a much more effective way than Elon is going to be able to with Twitter.
