I could have worded my post better, i still use LI too, particularly for client stuff but i find i spend less time on there now and find the general content uninteresting since being admitted in here.

Exactly. The day I can score leads on here or sell to WR people, I'll be off LI :)

No way WR members will be able to sell here unless you work for some sales tech company like Gong, Zoominfo or Salesloft

I've only ever used LI for prospecting purposes. It's never been interesting to me...all a bunch of ads, virtue signaling, personal updates from people I don't give a crap about, and old recycled content.

I don't use Linkedin for prospecting. I use calls for prospecting. I do see a lot of dope content on Linkedin like Corp's comedy, friends getting promoted and the occasional neat come-up story. That all gives me a dopamine boost and keeps me coming back for more

I'm here in the WR for the candid advice

Thats exactly it, thing is i didnt notice it so much until Bravado came along.  I dont use social media much (i.e. im not on twitter, FB or insta) for the same reasons you listed above.

Do like that about here, im always a bit hesitant to talk sales on my profile as i am mostly connected to buyers and i dont think theyd appreciate it.

Same, I don't even like/share sales related items on LinkedIn because I don't want my customers to think I'm manipulating them with sales techniques. Because I'm not? haha

LinkedIn is trash but not gonna lie, there are some stupid posts on here and it's been getting worse. I've certainly made a few dumb posts that have contributed to that not gonna lie. There should be a strict cap to letting more people in because some of the LinkedIn garbage is spilling over here

About the same, equal amount of time on both. LinkedIn makes me money, bravado makes me smarter

This is interesting as I was thinking about this yesterday. 

I've noticed I'm here much more than LinkedIn. I haven't cared to stay in LinkedIn other than to do a quick lookup, and even now I've gone to ZoomInfo more instead.

I think it's the mindset of, "What have you done for me lately" to LinkedIn. Which is nothing 🤷‍♀️

I still use both but I just get more and more annoyed at LI posts now. Saw a dude today that connected with me who posts stuff like "Good morning to everyone who is 100x more interested in looking in people's houses during Zoom calls vs.

Still use both, but now LinkedIn is more "because I have to" where as Bravado is more "because I want to"

I solely used LinkedIn to search for titles within a company. I can typically identify within 2-3 people of who I need to speak with about our products.

The War Room more for fun/interest/taking a break, LinkedIn for business.

I can't, I'm a recruiter so I have to spend time on that awful website daily. So many posts along the lines of "I think all people are great, Agree?" to farm clicks. I hate it but I need the candidates!
