Do we already have a Lemmy community for LinkedInLunatics?

Thank you so much, I didn't want to set it up myself on my instance since I just started it yesterday and maybe need to migrate it to other servers and also don't have a proper backup strategy in place yet.

It's the same uninspired desperate attempt at trying to get attention by recycling behaviour someone else at some point got views with. Like soy faces on YouTube, or generally SEO / blog spam that's more or less destroyed Google search results.

I'm just honestly shocked that people use LinkedIn as an actual SNS. The only times I ever log in or update my page is when im on the hunt for a new job lol

Exactly, like I get notifications from time to time and I may log in and say I'm not interested at the moment but otherwise I just forget it.

At that point they should write every word in the post as a hashtag.

#hashtag #truth #this #right #here

#for #engagement

To get more people to see their posts, some people on LinkedIn follow hashtags and by including a hashtag, that post ha a better chance at being seen by more people.

I don't use LinkedIn. But I guess, if it's the same as twitter, it's to appear in these # subjects.

If you search for a #word, and that #word is in that text, it would appear in there.

Tho I don't know why there is #ass and other works on LinkedIn, a professional social network.
