Unfortunately there really isn’t a viable option for most people. Maybe there are alternatives depending on your field and your geographical location (I know they use something else a lot in Germany), but for most people you’re really forced to use LinkedIn or you’re potentially doing a huge disservice to your career.
Which is the main source of hatred for LinkedIn: most people would rather not be using it but they stay there for their careers. Others use it as a platform to promote their crazy ideas, again in an effort to make them more employable or reach out to new professional connections. It’s a harsh world, but each of these insane posts makes that website a tiny bit more unbearable.
I don’t use it, but I’ve seen the video that a woman posted on LinkedIn of her sig heiling to prove that Elon didn’t make the “same gesture.” I’m convinced some people are just using it like regular social media, even if it makes them unemployable.
At least, FB still has some content made by humans. On LinkedIn, every single post is AI generated. People try to promote their ideas or views, but they all rely on AI to make their posts “readable”.

If you’re relying on LinkedIn for career growth you’re doing it wrong.
I deleted my LinkedIn almost a decade ago and am doing just fine. Really don’t think it matters as much as people think.

I can imagine. Is it getting Facebook level bad?

Oh lord
I think it’s surpassed FB, at this point.
