I don't have a LinkedIn account and don't really care about it. The one thing, however, that bothers me to no end is all the many, many times when a LinkedIn page comes up near the top of the results to a Google query, then I click on it, and chances are I don't get to the actual information, but to the LinkedIn log-in page. Not that I think that this is LinkedIn's fault, but I assume Google's rationale is that "everybody has a LinkedIn account" so it's fine to include result pages that cannot be accessed without one.

Can someone post the full thing instead of making a reader scroll up-and-down 'til the next block of text realizes it should load, please?

You guys are playing it wrong. You don’t larpmax in general, you do it to hit specific targets. The person who decides my promotions follows me on LinkedIn. I never really see her except at the Christmas party etc, so the only way to influence her directly is through getting in her feed. If she regularly sees how great I am, that establishes the thought in her mind, so when she is then asked to promote me by other people, she’ll think it’s a good idea.

LinkedIn is truly an odd place. I think it’s more performative than Instagram.

Who really goes to Linkedin to get useful info? That's why I am in Hacker News.
