Totally agree. The virtue signaling in my feed is so insufferable that I stopped reading it years ago. It has basically become twitter with the vitriol replaced by fake positivity.

Is there anyone eating that crap or people are just mimicking whatever others are doing?

Well, mimicking the higher ups is like 50% of climbing the corporate ladder in big, dysfunctional organizations....

Yeah, I've always wondered the same. Maybe recruiters?

That mute and unfollow button though.

I do about 10 a day.

Can your connections find out if you unfollow them? This is the only thing preventing me from unfollowing.

I've muted a ton of people I don't know at all because their rabid self-promotion or clickbait would keep showing up in my feed. But it is usually the same list of friends liking or sharing that content.
