# LinkedIn algorithm prioritizes old posts, repeats, broken notifications, and bad video

## Claim
I'm in charge of the LinkedIn algorithm and I've heard your demands: prioritize posts that are 3+ weeks old, only show posts you've already liked, break notifications completely, and make video bad.

## Mechanism
This is a satirical take on user complaints about LinkedIn's algorithm, implying that the platform's changes feel intentionally counterproductive to user experience.
