A genuine question for the people here, I am just a college student so maybe I am missing something, but does anybody actually browse through linkedin? The only times I actually open it up is when either I did something that I would like to remember when I update my Resume at a later date, or when my friends text me to open it up and like their post :)

#203I frequently post on LinkedIn, on topics related to AI, startups, open source, etc. I try to have a pragmatic and realistic take and don't use AI to write the posts. I find that just by not being cringe, obviously AI or obviously over the top sales-y makes the posts stand out and raise my (consulting) profile enough to land a meaningful number of clients, just as a second-order effect.

Do you realize that you are giving content for free to an already enshittified and closed platform?

Why are you putting content on such platforms? Honestly. Do you realize that you are giving content for free to an already enshittified and closed platform? Open a blog where everyone can read freely without to have an account in one of the worst platforms out there. Or is it to be popular that you post there?

That's pretty much my one gripe with the general culture of the Fediverse, a lot of people have made opposition to AI in general part of their identities and it can be a little tedious to have discussions at times because of it.
Yes it must be hard reading views that are different from your own.
