I don’t know how you guys use LinkedIn but for me it got me two job changes where I more than doubled my salary (via recruiters) and I find much more interesting technical discussions than on any other social platforms.
If you only follow recruiters and salesmen you get what you follow.
i use it the way i’m forced to: i have an account solely used for responding to recruiters. i never use the site, i just have email notifications set up for messages.
Same as most social media sites: Stop following those people, find a community about a topic you are interested in (IT is overrepresented, but anything engineering related is quite well represented) and follow the people who post valuable things.

How? Every time I log in it’s the dumbest thought leadership - and the same copy/paste gpt slop pitched as original insight.
