Backstory I often wonder how many LinkedIn "thought leaders" become so popular, when just about every post is basic, offering common sense, useless pieces of super basic information.
Honestly, the only reason I followed a lot of these people is just so I can laugh at them, and save their content for later...
I have a Notion database filled with examples of terrible content (and Google search results) that I just keep adding to.
One day, I'll make it public. I plan on calling it the "Influencer Watch List" -- that's where these thought leaders start. Then once confirmed their illegitimate, they'll move onto my "Influencers' Most Wanted" List.
Anyway, I'm willing to be that most of these influencers, who share these super basic posts with useless information, grew to where they are through fake engagement pods, which gave me a really good idea yesterday.
To level the playing field, what if people, who share good content or are just over this type of content too, banded together and created our own reverse engagement pods, where we click "not interested" on bad LinkedIn posts?!
Thoughts?!
