The solution is simple : don’t use LinkedIn :) I only use it when looking for a job and I never look at the “feed” (what’s that for anyway?)

I get more useful and up-to-date info from LinkedIn than from here.
Not sure who you’re following on LinkedIn but this is most assuredly not the case for me or anyone I know
LinkedIn is this constant networking event where everyone is looking for their next opportunity. It just feels gross to participate in it. Especially now that the only thing people do is talk about AI or use AI to talk about AI on their behalf.
And here it’s a constant flex with limited ability to participate in a discussion due to non-transparent posting quotas.
I mean how much do you really need to post here? I hit the limit occasionally but the forced slow down after a few comments seems rather wise to me. Helps people cool off for starters.

Feel free to go hang out on LinkedIn my dude. No one’s forcing you to tolerate comment limits here!

You never take part in multiple discussions? 10 minutes to cool off would be acceptable. Hours? No. It’s impossible to hold a conversation here. The measure has nothing to do with cooling off. It’s a simple anti-llm-spam measure.
These policies existed years before LLM spam.
up-to-date info on what sorts of topics?
On every subject that isn’t “rewritten in Rust”.
