    I honestly don’t understand the people who use it daily. Everyone I’ve ever worked with just uses it as an online resume

      Of the people I see posting stuff daily (or at least within a day of the few times a year I log in), it’s all posted by people I’ve worked with with in the past who I thought it was a miracle they were employed at all. And they usually still/again have the Open To Work badge on their pic.

      If LinkedIn got rid of the entire concept of a feed, I think it would work a lot better. And the “loss of engagement” won’t contain anything of value apart from ad impressions.

      Precisely. I have no interest in engaging with it as a social network. It’s like the worst of both worlds.
