LinkedIn Larpmaxxing and the performative professional persona
Original: LinkedIn Larpmaxxing
A new blog post coins 'LinkedIn Larpmaxxing' to describe users who treat their LinkedIn profiles as elaborate performances, inflating titles, projecting constant enthusiasm, and crafting inspirational posts far removed from their actual work. The piece argues the platform rewards this roleplay over honest professional substance, and it is striking a chord with readers who feel the same exhaustion with corporate self-promotion culture online.
Why now: Readers are reacting to a sharply worded critique of how performative and inauthentic LinkedIn culture has become.
Rank over time, top of the chart is #1. 5 snapshots from 11 h ago to 10 h ago.
