Who sends you personal messages on LinkedIn? Personally, I don't even trust LinkedIn to have an app installed on my phone. But I haven't received even a single spam notification from any of the major chat platforms.

Good for you. I get dozens a day.

Are these first-party messages from the platform, or is it more akin to spam email where they're just letting through spam messages from spammers?

Mostly first party.

Interesting. I have all of WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Signal and Telegram (+ SMS and email, but I'm guessing these aren't the issue) installed on my phone with notifications enabled, and I only get notified when I receive a message. I'd be interested to know which services are spamming you.
