The feed is nothing but useless hustle porn. 99.99% of recruiter messages I get are offering the same position I have now, but at a less mature company. However I got my first software job using it (don’t have a degree), and found my most recent job via the easy apply. LinkedIn has been a net positive for me, and can safely be ignored for a long time while not hunting.

The feed is akin to a perpetual conference hall. Maybe you'll bump into someone who got a new job, but the majority of the time it's just people trying to sell their new business or themselves as a "thought leader"
