I know all social media platforms want more engagement anyhow, but some should take care of such mentally agonizing posts via their policies and/or algorithms.

This post is about the McK suicide. Still had to use this random ass picture so that engagement is tip top. #shame

Still remember her classic "Accenture is firing 15,000 employees..." caption with a side profile candid (?) pose in some European city. Vultures.

I have been scrolling LinkedIn a lot for job hunting purposes and can’t really understand why are people posting random self images with random post! Is there something a-logarithmic? , is this plain baiting?

What’s the idea behind posting selfies or pictures of oneself on random LinkedIn posts?!

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I have been following this platform since it had nearly 500 users and have been a part of its Discord community for over two years. During this time, I have gained valuable insights and developed a deep respect for the kind individuals I have encountered and the meaningful posts that have been shared.

However, I must express my concerns. I am saddened and apprehensive because I do not want this platform to become just another saturated and mainstream platform. Over the past couple of months, I have noticed an increase in posts lacking intellectual or helpful intent and any content that contributes value to the community through insightful discussions. Instead, there is an increasing trend of people engaging in random and polarized political discussions, either directly or indirectly, or simply sharing mainstream articles and seeking opinions on matters of little significance.

Therefore, I kindly request the moderators to consider the quality of the posts.

I hope that this platform does not become or shares the denominator with those which are oversaturated and mainstream, as I have high expectations for its potential.

Concerns about the Platform's Direction: Maintaining Quality and Uniqueness

Most of the people just keep adding so many irrelevant pictures to their posts!! I mean what do they get out of it. If it’s anything to do with regards to the picture, I understand. Other than that, it has become a trend to add photos to the posts. They say they will have greater reach and greater views. It’s so annoying. I don’t understand the difference between Instagram and LinkedIn. Most of the time I feel Instagram is better than LinkedIn. All these so called entrepreneurs have also started doing this shit and feels 😖😣

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Really surprised to see the level of name-calling, personal attacks and poor use of language happening on a public forum for professionals.

I don't know how we came to this point as a country where you can't even have a civil discussion about topics without someone starting to abuse people for no good reason. It's the same thing playing out on other social media platforms as well.

Most of this vitriol seems to be coming from a particular section of people, and it's obvious to everyone. What I don't get is why they indulge in such behaviour when they could be speaking to their potential partners, employers, colleagues and maybe even future co-founders.

Do they not realise this, or do they not care? Why has mature conversation and civil discourse died such a horrible death in India? Who is responsible? Can this be fixed?

Do people here not realise their current/future employers might be on GV too?

Grapevine lacks engagement - which I believe could kill this app. Which would be sad, given how helpful it can be. What are some of the ways we can help the makers of this app boost engagement?

Feel free to post any idea which you may have. The makers will thank you!

Welcome to LinkedIn Cringe's Private Community

I noticed a trend on LinkedIn that people use the layoffs as an excuse to preach others that if you constantly upskill and learn then you will be safe from layoffs. 

To any freshers who believe in this crap listen this - The folks who got laid off from companies are not in any way underskilled. I've seen my colleagues get laid off at my previous company who were extremely talented and responsible for building products from scratch. 

These companies layoff people randomly and not skill based. They choose the people who are drawing more salary (often the most skilled) and fire them in the name of cost cutting. So, how does upskilling will help this situation?

Note that, the current tech market is unstable and will continue to be for next few years. Upskilling may get you up the corporate ladder but it won't in anyway save you from impending layoffs. The so-called influencers preaching this should STOP.

NOTICE this post, how this guy conveniently skipped mentioning Google layoffs in the list, since he currently works ar Google 😆

People who lecure to upskill to prevent layoffs need to stop 🛑

I swear dude, the subtle condescension is so annoying. "Don't be in your comfort zone" and shit - as if (most) people aren't already trying their best to stay up to date and keep their skills sharp. Sounds like classic victim blaming, if you ask me.

I keep seeing these viral posts with a selfie or some copy paste article, feels a time waste at times. Has anyone else faced similar?

Fed up of seeing copy paste post on LinkedIn plus post with a selfie, why is algo so bad for posts

I have seen this young kids who started going to college and got access to mobile are copying these cheap trends *chapri styles* how to explain them diffrence between dolly chaiwala  and Rohit Sharma ...🤣

Is there a way on Instagram to filter content we see...I see many cringe and dirty videos from UP and Bihar..

Why do female founders and other budding LinkedIn female influencers post their personal pictures(gym photos, selfies, random photos of themselves) on LinkedIn? It’s a professional platform for fucks sake. 

You don’t post these photos on Leap Club but LinkedIn is okay because validation. 

And nobody calls them out. Men are lost in simp behaviour and others ignore them.

I have insta = I know it all.

Is it just mine or is everyone’s LinkedIn blowing up with absolute crap. Like the most basic thing people are posting and making it sound like they discovered something huge or they’ve found some crazy insights. 

Everyone is trying to build their own LinkedIn brand and it’s just become frustrating. 

A lot of recruiters/founders still put out hiring posts on LinkedIn 

Some funny posts - 

- All founders acting like they’ve achieved something huge by being on the Forbes/times now/etc 40 under 40 list 
- Today someone posted about the business model of Shyamji Chole Bhature 
- People copy pasting the same fake stories
