I have deleted my Linkedin profile. was easier than blocking all the spammers and sales people.
Damn - I thought I was the only one to delete it. No one hits me up though (cue the violins.) I just got tired of seeing all the virtue signaling.
on average I had
- 5 book sales people per month (like wtf, who cares what eguide or book you have self published)
- 2 recruitment consultants per week (not for me, they want to ask whether I have anyone to recruit)
- at least 1 message per week from random people who I have never met, mostly from India with some cryptic name
- then, of course, tons of messages from LinkedIn to join their premium plan so my life can finally improve. yeah, right.
Just Bridget Hyacin or whoever tf it is “Agree?????!!!!”
I love how we all collectively know who this one virtue-signalling bull sht artist is.
Nah man, this one here is the King of Cringe

You don’t have to block them if you never add them to begin with.
Highly recommend just only being connections with people you know. I occasionally accept an invite from a recruiter if I think they could help me in the future but for the most part if we haven’t spoken for then you’re getting declined. Don’t get much spam at all
Gary Vaynerchuk. God I can’t stand him. Blocked his Tiktok too. He’s insufferable.
That dude is so weird
Need to watch Tim Dillon's gary v rants. It's hysterical how much bullshit he spews.
Am I the only one here who finds GaryV kinda endearing? He tries so hard to sell his way of living and I have to respect that. He is atleast putting his money where his mouth is, he really is the ADHD-riddled hustler he claims to be - from how many famous people can you say that?
yes.
Mark Ross is the first one who comes to mind, also anyone who makes a post on Bright Network; if it pops up on my feed they get blocked.
Mark Ross is incredibly cringey I agree all his gay made up stories always clog my feed. I think LinkedIn has the worst “influencers” by far truly a site where only the most pretentious people gather.
Who’s Mark Ross and what kind of posts does he make?
Jimmy Slagle - “Day 111 of posting the same photoshopped picture of me and Gary Vaynerchuk”
