(Un)LinkedIn

LinkedIn is a great resource for professional use. Links to colleagues (if you’re working in an international company), articles and insights in your domain of work and of course the potential of career advancement.

However, lately I’ve noticed that the platform has started to become filled with inane postings and uselessness posing as wisdom. I’ve even seen conspiracy theories being propagated, and of course, the inevitable cancer of junk advertising.

I don’t have an answer to the problem currently, but scaling back use seems to be a rational decision.

Social Media poisons everything seems apt in 2019.
