what happened to linkedin?

Just a bit of rant here…

I haven’t been on LinkedIn for a while, as I took a break from everything career-related.

For the past few weeks, as I navigate, looking to engage and build my network, it’s been sad. It’s really sad. The entire timeline is just pure AI-written slop (even the replies!). From the emoji overload to the lack of personality to the lack of thought-provoking pieces. Pure slop.

I’m not looking forward to the future. The future looks bland – inauthentic.

Can we just be ourselves?
