Nobody posts anything “quality” on there whatsoever. Its complete pablum.

I imagine if the posts on LinkedIn inspire someone, that they probably are they kind of person to have a lot of “live laugh love” word art on their walls as well.

Is there a switch to turn off the social media/posting element on linkedin altogether? I don't see why I should be spending my time engaging with their algorithm just so it's bearable to use

There isn’t and you shouldn’t.

Probably a good idea for a chrome extension actually

Just don't open the home page except to navigate to the specific thing you need and when you do, don't look at the slop? The social media/posting element of linkedin is totally disconnected from the useful part of the site and you can just ignore it.

Remind me what the useful part is again?

That sounds exhausting and pointless.
