The Story
LinkedIn has successfully scaled into a global professional utility, effectively monopolizing the way humans signal career status. However, in its pursuit of platform engagement, it has sacrificed quality for quantity, leading to a culture of performative professional 'cringe' and transactional networking.
Key Insight
LinkedIn has scaled its utility perfectly while losing its soul to algorithmic hustle culture and corporate-speak that lacks genuine human connection.
