It is super important to have “no asshole zones”. We can joke about “safe space” like “South Park” did but at least not having your work shredded to parts with snarky comments goes far.

I started posting on LinkedIn this year. I was afraid all the time there will be assholes coming out of woods to just say “you’re an idiot take this post down” - it happened once in 6 months so not bad. Other asshole was reposting my stuff picking on the details basically making content out of me.

Blocking was effective and shadow banning is great as those most likely moved on not even knowing I blocked them.

I would reconsider why you would want to post on LinkedIn in the first place.
