The Facebookification of Linkedin is here. And it’s all downhill.
I was surprised to see mini-games as a side-panel feature.
Is LinkedIn prioritizing short-term gains in Average Session Duration over maintaining the core value proposition of the platform? It feels like a shift towards “Facebookification,” and frankly, it worries me. And it should worry you too.
We rely on LinkedIn for industry insights, professional development, and connecting with peers and potential collaborators. Mini-games are a potential dilution of the platform’s focus.
For years, founders have been told to stick to a core-focus, and I wish someone could reach out to Linkedin for a refresher on Product Focus 101.
What are your thoughts? Am I alone in feeling this way?
