Is there any logic or reason as to why platforms allow liking your own posts?

If so, should people do it? Does it help in anyway?

Product question : why can someone "like" their own posts?

Why do people worship kids who are not even 1% of a Masters or PhD person? Knowledge wise they keep selling algo ds or marketing strategies. 
See comments they seem like stars 😂

Not jealous but in general where are we heading where new joiners are learning from new joiners.

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?!

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.

Personal photos on LinkedIn

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

Disturbing Observations:
1. AI Influencer Tag (With Paid Services)
2. Same old google courses link
3. Unrelated FB Quotes about hustle/success
4. Simp hormonal fans

How do people still fall for such posts ? (This is 2024)

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!

Bruh! Kudos 👏

I feel Linkedin should remove posting pictures option or should allow to report the post if the photo and content has no co-relation.  
  
  
 lots of so called influencers be posting copied content or success stories with a random ass photo.

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.

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.

LinkedIN Cringe moment. Why do people create shitty content like this?

10 engineering blogs to take you to the next level

25 tech blogs you must read

40 big tech system design blogs for interviews

75 software engineering blogs to read everyday

1000 tech blogs that will make you a staff engineer

... and many more.

LinkedIn was used to share useful engineering information but now it just feels like a URL aggregator

Am I the only one bothered by this trend?

Rant. Chappri Interns and mid af SDEs on LinkedIn have destroyed the entire point of the platform. Every Tier 1 graduate working at Microsoft or Walmart posts their own pic in some Manali hillstation and give 400 lines of unsolicited gyaan, which virgin btech 2nd year students cant help but drool at.

I get it bro/sis, you mugged up 800 LC mediums and Microsoft came to your BITS campus and picked you up because you solved a system design question in the interview which scales infinitely for infinite users. No, i dont want to enroll is PrepCracker's System Design Cohort for just Rs 69,999 and replace Hotstar's CTO.

Folks like Arpit Bhayani and Addy Osmani are the only reason I open linkedin to actually get some ground level reality of how to be a better SWE, but all i see is bhaiyya didi telling me why my resume is not getting selected because i didnt pay Rs. 1,999 for their Topmate Resume Review session.

Due to them Twitter is full of 2nd year dimwits who think swe is the only path to liberation and their bhaiyya didi will be their guiding angel. They won't. They'll turn out just like your average 3.5lpa employee at WITCH. The only way to become a good swe is figure shit out yourself and do what you love. Its that simple. Im from a shit tier 3 college. I've cracked FAANG and that too with 42 lc solved. What DSA bro?

Thankyou to the Grapevine team for building a good platform where genuine watercooler discussions take place. Deleted LinkedIn for good until i get my sanity back.

LinkedIn Gyaanis should be banned

Middle class people are not wrong in thinking that swe is a path to their liberation. I could only afford to travel to these exotic places, take up (unnecessary) hobbies, pursue gym and eat good after earning those fat paychecks because of these overvalued startups paying me

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.
