- professional use
- Technically inappropriate for LinkedIn's professional tone but occasionally appears in comment sections as a subtle dig at corporate speak or humble brag posts.
- post context
- Some influencer-type users deploy it ironically in posts to seem relatable and counter the polished LinkedIn aesthetic.
- appropriateness
- Low appropriateness for formal use; higher appropriateness for casual 'thought leadership' posts trying to seem down-to-earth.
- comment use
- Risky to use โ can come across as dismissive or unprofessional. Sometimes used by younger professionals to signal they see through corporate theater.
