Some of the ridiculous posts that are clearly aimed to promote more followers

@lisa_steingold1 but LinkedIn is meant for promoting our work and accomplishments encouraging community to engage with it, isn't it? :)

@nika_salute it should be done in the spirit of sharing knowledge and getting feedback, not for telling the world how wonderful you are. I don't mean you - I mean people who post every day just trying to get attention. It's a good point though "what is LinkedIn for"

wish that it was easier to see a user's wall / past posts on their profile

@nika_salute for sure, even when I'm trying to find my own posts sometimes, lol

As someone deeply involved in the technology space, I can relate to the frustrations that come with using LinkedIn. From endless connection requests to irrelevant job recommendations, the platform can definitely test our patience! What bugs you the most on LinkedIn?'

@thestarkster Connection requests, yes. It's a dilemma because you want to remain open to potential valuable connections, yet filtering through the noise can be a nightmare. As for me, one of the most annoying aspects is how randomly LinkedIn calculates the SSI score. Despite carefully managing my connections and actively engaging, my score sometimes drops unexpectedly, and I just don't know WHY.

I don't think LinkedIn fosters engagement that well yet. I don't really spend much time on it, and it seems like all the groups I would be interested in being a part of are dead.

@kevwilliams012 Yeah, I feel you! But it's mostly better than on Facebook. Have you tried exploring newer groups or leveraging LinkedIn's advanced search features to find more active and relevant connections?
