LinkedIn Isn't Just for Jobs Anymore. It's Now a Dating App Too.

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
My favorite thing is LinkedIn sending you spam advertisements disguised as real people chatting you. Every month or so I get a message from a spambot saying something along the lines of "Hello! My name is Diana. Have you heard of LinkedIn premium?"
Total trashfire of a website. Unfortunately, I still have to open it every now and then to adjust my profile and check for jobs, because it feels like everyone asks for your linkedin page when applying now.
I decided to check if it was any better than my current specialized job portal, which has enshittified a little in the last years. But Linkedin enshittification can't be beat. It's like prostitution level of job seeking for brainwashed people. What jobs are you applying for?
Game dev, mainly. I use other websites to apply but there's usually a spot dedicated for your linkedin profile, a lot of recruiters expect your portfolio to be on there.
