Audience.

With the Elonification of Twitter there has been a splittering of tech/biz audiences across different platforms, each with their own problems, and the split is different in different parts of the world.

It so happens that LI continues to be popular with the audience segment and geographic location I'm primarily working with.

Agree with all negative comments about the platform tho.

Because parent post derives clients from it. It's in the post.

Just because a lot of cringe stuff happens there doesn't mean it is a useless platform. For me it's been the best way to get jobs - just by having a filled in profile and occasionally replying to recruiter spam when they have an interesting looking job. I got my current job which has an insane salary with that method.

I also copy/paste non-cringe blog posts there occasionally. I think more people read them than on my actual blog.

>> Why are you engaging sincerely on a platform created for boot licking?

I think that's Kink.com :)
