> Twitter is a public space used by politicians, governments, public figures, news agencies, et al.
I'm quite happy that something like LinkedIn is separate from general purpose social media (imagine the self-aggrandizing spam otherwise, or having to sift past someone's holiday photos when wanting to see what's new in the corpo world).
What's missing is something the same for any and all official messaging - imagine something like Twitter, but for governments, various institutions, politicians, public figues and all that, a degree more separated from the regular and more individual content you often see on the "unprofessional" social media, almost like a news feed.
Tbh that could be a Mastodon instance, it boggles the mind that fire departments and police precincts and all of those institutions are on such a user-hostile platform run by someone whose motivations are at best unclear.
It's sad that such a distinction never developed, especially cause a lot of the orgs just want broad reach (especially when you're a politician or something), so network effects are once more kicking everyone's butt and we're held hostage and no competitors can gain enough steam. So if you want to see those posts, guess you'll have to make that account and get datamined or whatever.
