"It’s a place, as Scott Galloway recently put it, where people assume you’re engaging in good faith, not bad."

"LinkedIn’s built a friendly, productive, and scaled network by developing the right incentives and taking genuine action when things go wrong."

"On LinkedIn, being a jerk has consequences."

"Long term product health > engagement"

"LinkedIn’s product team makes substantial changes to address bad things on its product, even when it costs the company “engagement.”"

"LinkedIn’s business model is different. About one-third of its revenue comes from advertising, but many of LinkedIn’s users pay to use its premium product, so its users are its customers, and the interests are aligned."

"LinkedIn is able to sacrifice short-term engagement for long-term goals — as noted above — because its business model incentivizes it."

"LinkedIn’s trending column is world-class. It’s filled with relevant news, curated by human editors, and doesn’t rally people to ridicule peers who became that day’s “main character.”"

"LinkedIn’s share button doesn’t allow you to pass along other people’s posts without accountability."

"LinkedIn’s feed has interesting information, but nothing feels too pressing."

"People using the service, therefore, tend to be thoughtful when posting."
