Guy doesn't seem to understand what a "work persona" is. I wouldn't want to date my own work persona let alone anyone else's.
I don't even have a linkedin work persona. its an online resume as well as a way to stay in touch with coworkers mainly by getting or giving recommendations. I don't get why anyone posts there.
Lol...
Dude has his parents setting up profiles on "matrimony sites" and thinks the part of that that is outdated is the fuckin web interface?
Like, imagine writing that, thinking LinkedIn would become a dating site...
And all your potential "dates" would see your comment about how Mummy and Daddy couldn't arrange a marriage for you.
They want LinkedIn to be a dating site, because it says how much they make. And that's the only thing they have going for them.
You're judging based on arbitrary standards of the "modern" and "correct" way to find a partner.
I'm pretty sure the people who choose to find a partner by having their parents make profiles on "matrimony websites" are doing it wrong...
Now, I have zero experience with that tactic, but even the LinkedIn Lunatic seems to agree it's not the best plan
So it's not arbitrary standards, it's based on that person saying it's not working.
What's confusing is they don't seem to understandwhy women in 2025 aren't attracted to that method
Who wants to marry a guy based on an ad his mother wrote? Every woman I know would see that as a giant red flag and run for the hills. Which again, seems to be what the person who tried it also found out...
No Fake Profiles
No Scams
Has this guy actually used LinkedIn lol?
Also "No subscriptions" as if LinkedIn isn't infamous for locking features behind their subscription
On the one hand, the idea of using linkedin as a dating website is irredeemably terrible. On the other hand, if singles who think otherwise actually follow through with it, that saves a bit of time and frustration for a lot of other people.
Looking at the demographics of people obsessed with linkedin, I feel like it's gonna be a sausage party
So just like any other dating app.
Should work out depending on how you swing.
Dude was probably being set up for an arranged marriage by his family, which can potentially pair you with someone you do not share any interests with or even attracted to in the first place. With that context, it kinda makes sense that he wants someone who at least shares something similar with him, and I guess linkedin is one way of finding out (in his mind).
"I use Tinder to find jobs and LinkedIn for dating. There's much less competition!"
No need to explain "What is ML/AI" every time.
Oh you absolute goon. No one wants to hear your half baked techno jargon explanation of your 'prompt engineering job' they are trying to be nice and get to know you...
Never thought about it, but how does LinkedIn finance its service?
Edit: looked it up
Membership fees, marketing services and recruiting solutions
Now that I think about it, there are some premium account things you can pay for
As I don't use it much, I've never really looked into it
Premium subscription that allows messaging people out of your network and provides a bunch of analytics about profile/article views. I know sales, marketing, and recruiting people that love it.
