@entrepreneurs: Elon Musk has once again sparked debate after calling posting on LinkedIn “cringe” in a viral reply on X. This is far from the first time Musk has criticized LinkedIn. Over the past few years, he has repeatedly mocked the Microsoft-owned platform for what he sees as excessive self-promotion, polished career updates, and an overly positive corporate culture. Musk has even suggested that X could eventually launch its own professional networking platform as an alternative to LinkedIn.
