LinkedIn Tests TikTok-Style Video Feed

The professional networking platform aims to enhance user engagement with career-focused short videos.

LinkedIn is testing a short-form, TikTok-like video feed in its app, aiming to cater to users' growing interest in video content for learning and professional development.
The new feature, currently in beta, appears under a 'Video' tab, allowing users to like, comment, or repost videos, similar to other social media platforms.
This move follows the trend of other major platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and Netflix, which have also introduced short-form video feeds to compete with TikTok's success.
LinkedIn's focus on career and professional content differentiates its video feed from others, aiming to provide a platform for career advice, job search tips, and professional development.
Concerns exist about the impact of infinite scrolling on mental health, with some officials arguing that it can increase addiction to social media.
