# LinkedIn I just hate LinkedIn; it consumes a lot of my precious time and adds no value. I forget anything I read on it. It's just another infinite scroll, an alternate Facebook filled with professionals who copy-paste posts and get likes. I am afraid to say that it just doesn't work to promote authentic work and just gives some useless badges. I thought the problem lay in me not understanding the dynamics of this social app. But the fact is that it was never built to be understood. It's just another social media platform that keeps distracting people and reduces their confidence. Let me elaborate. We get to see what our connections have achieved or what someone else has achieved, and we get a feeling that we are nowhere close to them. The app makes us believe that we have not achieved anything and breaks our self-belief. LinkedIn has made me jealous, anxious, sad, depressed, and never happy in my professional endeavors.
