WRGMG these days are 'LinkedIn-fluencers' who use it as a way to gloat about their businesses, their accolades, their income, or provide ####ty life advice that no one asked for. For instance, from a random About section of one of these people that popped up in my feed:
Spoiler!
Quote:
Over the last decade, I helped build two companies past a $1B valuation and raise over $300M in venture capital.
Then, in 2019, I burned out.
So, I decided to walk away from my high-paying executive job.
I believed building an audience online would be an incredible asset. That attention was the new currency and would play a major part in my success as an entrepreneur.
So, I started building my brand on LinkedIn in early 2019.
And the results were pretty phenomenal.
In just 6 months I grew from zero followers to over 20,000.
And on August 1st of 2019, I walked away from my executive role at a fast-growing startup.
Since that day, I've spent my time building a number of one-person Internet businesses.
My mission is to be the "Diversified Solopreneur."

Today I'll cross 575,000 LinkedIn followers.
I started (like all of you) at zero in 2018.
I literally had no idea what I was doing when I began sharing things I had learned building two startups to $1B valuations.

Who ####ing talks like this? And there's so many like this on that platform. LinkedIn is becoming so cringe now.
