Comment on Hey LinkedIn – Nobody Wants This

Comments

Everyone does this. By now, I consider it an industry "best practice" and no one should be surprised.

Is it still reprehensible? Sure, but then again, every startup that has ever grown their user base has used some variation of this "growth hack".

I wish that I had the ability to downvote people because of comments like this. There is no justification for that kind of behavior -- and calling it a "best practice" speaks volumes about your lack of integrity.

I think the quotes around "best practices" served to convey a sense of mocking. The second paragraph is evidence of that.

Where's the app that properly conveys snarkiness in text? Thanks Pandler for your clarification.

Huh, I didn't read any snarkiness in that... Sorry, then!
