That't totally it. LinkedIn has become a huge echo chamber of corporate wannabe-influencers who spend most of their time playing "Who can be the most positive about being fired" games or channeling HR's post your swag / new role / certificate dross.

I've seen one or two borderline posts about the recent layoffs but even them weren't outright critical of the horrendous way people were let go (via e-mail or text message) just things like "I expected a little better treatment" and "It was all a bit surreal" rather than "What a load of balls, how could they treat me like this after 20 years!".

I'm totally sure LinkedIn suppresses negativity and guides the narrative to keep the money coming in or how else could such a bizarrely huge organisation stay afloat itself with it's tens of thousands of staff all milking what is basically a social media job site.
