It’s the people who make work their personality and them circlejerking each other. Don’t get me wrong, there are experts in my field who post valuable stuff on there, but it’s about topics in our field, not about working itself.

No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I know a dude who spent high school doing blow, dropped out of college, assaulted his mom while coked up, fucked around until his dad gave him a successful company in his late twenties. I watched this dude cry at the kitchen table because his dad told him to treat the employees as equals and not dirt.
He now posts almost daily on LinkedIn about the keys to success.
I mean, having a rich daddy hand you everything is historically proven to be the most reliable key to success. So…
Can't wait for a c/LinkedInLunatics to be migrated from Reddit
So many people on LinkedIn are batshit insane
There is a c/[email protected] but its not very active… be the change you wish to see!
[email protected] is the link as far as I know, /c may be on the instance but the ! allows for cross instance.
I just ignore the posts, its mostly bullshit corporate propaganda and public asslicking.
LinkedIn is great to find a new job if you build your profile correctly. Work experience, skills, etc Usually recruiters can find you based on that. I receive at least 1-2 offers monthly based on this alone.
Also the job section is great, you can set alarms for certain types of positions with tons of criterias, like location, type of work, specific skill required, etc
The rest is just pure trash and cringe.
I might be in the minority here, but I see it as it was meant to be. People presenting themselves as professionaly as possible, linking to their projects and their workplace's events. Maybe Linkdin is different in other regions or cultures.
I think I'm starting to hate "professional".
It literally means playing a corporate role, not being genuine, trying to get connections to make your career take off.
It's not genuine, or warm, or fun... It's just corporate shit. What a world.
Can't wait for a Fediverse alternative to launch to be honest
I don’t think it would fix any of its faults tho
