This post also doesn't really seem worthwhile, but you're entitled to your opinion.

LinkedIn is basically facebook. I would argue that anything Facebook-esque is a fundamental waste of time. Misinformation spewing influencer spam.

When is the last time a recruiter checked out your profile on Facebook?

When is the last time someone shared obvious misinformation about covid on LinkedIn? Or women and POC being harassed via DMs? Or people vomiting influencer spam?

LinkedIn is the only social media site with the possibility of return on time investment, which all suffer from the problems you mention. So why pick the one that can't possibly get you paid?

Also, I'm still curious on how many recruiters have contacted you through Facebook and viewed your resume, as compared to LinkedIn.

Do you think influencers go on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram because they aren't getting paid? They just like it?

To compare, the answer is 0 to both. I haven't been on Facebook since probably 2013, and I only had a LI at all because we were required to make one in college, which I logged into for the second time ever to deactivate also probably around 2013.

I assumed we were talking about software development, not influencing. Why are you so interested in chiming in on products you haven't used in 8 years?
