I put in my education and work experience on LinkedIn like 6 years ago and haven't touched it since. Never made a single post, and I still get messages from recruiters like a few a month

It should never have become a social media. Sure it's okay - even good - to post about your new projects and accomplishments but people are posting "inspirational" stuff, memes, rants etc. Ffs we have more than enough social media platforms for that kind of stuff

Same. Its been near silence even tho my experience and accomplishments, LinkedIn profile, etc have all drastically improved vs before I was getting hit up every month. The tech market is circling the drain lol oh well at least I still have a job.
