I use LinkedIn and I spend about 10 minutes a week on it. All I do is build my network of recruiter acquaintances for when I’ll be looking for work.

LinkedIn can be very valuable if you use it as a tool, with a professional purpose.

There isn’t a shred of genuine human experience on that platform though.

I haven't read a more true thing about LinkedIn. Since launching my app (https://neurtureapp.com) on ProductHunt I've posted on their a couple times and each time I nauseate myself.

I'll also say that the fact that I can't comment or like something without LI telling the whole world makes me less likely to do those things. Maybe that's how all social media works, I wouldn't know though.
