I’ll go first.
To me, it’s all about access.
Access to authentic ideas.
The best search result you get on Google is high SEO but low authenticity. On LinkedIn, there are so many people but everyone is shilling a course or 1:1 resume reviews.
Mostly it has become a place which started as vanity signalling
Like
( I have started a new role…, I have been accepted at …, I have received offers from F, A, N and G and I’m joining G.)
And now people pushing mindless content with “Agree?” or “Comment Interested”.
Somehow, everyone is truly inauthentic to please a wider audience and say the exact same generic gyaan to maximise engagement.
For now, Grapevine is where people are genuinely themselves and I get to hear interesting things that you get to hear near the coffee machine.
Kinda feels like we’re all a big community where we all contribute and learn new things about the professional landscape around us.
Godspeed Grapevine. 🚀
