Right? I've been trying to get comfortable on #LinkedIn, but the vibe I get is that of nobody daring to be their true selves. People are "painting the roses red" because the Red Queen might see their post - almost North Korean levels of alegiance to the The Company and Brand.
The result is that nothing feel authentic, and everything is done in service of the quarterly goals.
Gestern bin ich auf #LinkedIn über einen Thread gestolpert, der mich an #facebook erinnerte und dazu brachte, im Ergebnis circa 30 Profile zu blockieren. Auslöser war ein Beitrag zu #Habeck und #Graichen. Dazu kann man gern stehen, wie man will, aber dieser Thread eskalierte sofort in Hass, merkwürdige Vergleiche, Verschwörungsmythen und extreme Forderungen. Die Akteure: >>>
WordPress.com: Why #Twitter Auto-Sharing Is Coming to an End
For WordPress.com and #Jetpack users, Twitter will no longer be part of Jetpack Social. However, we’re adding #Instagram and #Mastodon very soon. In the meantime, auto-sharing to Tumblr, #Facebook, and #LinkedIn still works as expected, and you can continue sharing your blog post links on Twitter manually through their app or desktop site.
"Never lie on your resume," say recruiters who mark jobs listings as "remote" when they require three days a week in the office, or use LinkedIn's "Easy Apply" feature and then email candidates who apply a link to the REAL (not easy) application in their own applicant tracking system.
Got annoyed by the gazillions #LinkedIn email updates and wanted to do a quick unsubscribe. So... mind you, these lists are THREE LEVELS DEEP, which makes around 10^3 is One Thousand Options. And this screen is "simplified"? Are they mad?
The only reason I haven't still deleted my Twitter account is because its the Customer Care portal in India, Corporates here give a 💩 only when calling them out in the public.
Is there any other alternative? Frankly, I don't want Mastodon to be that; Less corporates the better.
Does the other septic tank - LinkedIn serve this purpose? I mean we could technically call out the CEO on it but it would quickly get buried in the narcissism cesspool of posts.
#Physics is where I started and someday want to return, but currently focused on our great task.
New to #Mastodon, hoping to find a place where people can connect more authentically than #LinkedIn, without the algorithm or the corporate hype machines. #EnergyMastodon
