Why I Left LinkedIn Videos for TikTok (And You Should Too)
When LinkedIn launched their video feed, I thought it was a good opportunity to do more videos, as I've always loved video editing. But... something feels really weird about LinkedIn's video sharing system. The algorithm seems to be completely freewheeling and shows the same content that made me escape Facebook (fake social experiments, obviously staged "real" situations, influencer bullcrap...).
The positive impact of LinkedIn would have been that the LinkedIn crowd started to do videos (a few did), but instead of that, it just brought in the pointless noise that we're getting on other social media. However, as I was having more and more fun experimenting with short videos, I started to share them on... TikTok. Totally not in my initial goal, but I see it as a way more suitable platform for short (30 seconds) videos... I might share some of them here from time to time, like this one about your first day at a new job.
Enjoy your Friday, all! 👋
