Not sure, but (at least for me) seemed yesterday LI to be hiding comments on post where you did a ‘link in comments’ thing 🥴 will no one think of the marketers??

That’s annoying. I do that all the time. How else are people supposed to promote their businesses?

Guess it’s like x - link suppression - they just want to keep people on their platform / or make you pay if promoting. Instagram effectively always did this… ironically it’s like old school trade pubs who refused to ever link off site

AI makes it easier to scale bots. Just report and block.

I usually just block them immediately

I’m getting a lot of “Let’s connect” comments on my posts that are suspect.

Can't wait to start flooding you guys with leadership memes.

I've come across several; been DM-ed into a conversation, and their profile will quickly disappear once you call them out.

Yeah it’s annoying

Yes, and the addition of games, unnecessary prominent promotion of talking heads vertical videos and incredibly stale "breaking" news alerts is convincing me the platform will soon be in steep decline
