Is LinkedIn Becoming an Empty Stage?

Is LinkedIn Becoming an Empty Stage?

Is it just me, or has the return on effort here fallen massively?

It feels like no matter how thoughtful, helpful, or experience-led your content is, if you don’t already have a big following, your posts barely reach anyone.

I’m speaking to more and more business owners who are creating genuinely valuable, authentic, experience-led content…

…and still getting 200 impressions, 3 likes, and silence.

Many are starting to feel disillusioned with the platform.
And honestly? I can understand why.

We’re constantly being told to:
“Add value.”
“Be consistent.”
“Share thought leadership.”

But recently, it feels like the rules have changed.

So I’m curious to hear what are you noticing?

  • Has your engagement dropped?
  • Has it changed how you use LinkedIn?
  • Or are you still seeing growth?

I’d love to hear your experience.
