LinkedIn changing creator mode and emphasizing 'follow' over 'connect' on profiles
LinkedIn is transitioning its creator mode features to all users, removing the on/off switch and shifting the 'about' section back to the top of profiles. The main call-to-action (CTA) on profiles will now default to 'follow,' although users can still choose 'connect' if preferred. This change emphasizes the 'follow' option as the preferred interaction method, which may lead to fewer unsolicited connection requests since users must explicitly navigate to send invites. This aligns with a trend towards more curated networking, as users who prefer the 'connect' option will have the flexibility to select it, while overall, the platform aims to streamline interaction through following.
