Honest LinkedIn Notifications

What LinkedIn notifications might look like in a slightly more honest world. (Satire.)...

@collinsworth this has made my day 🙏

@collinsworth
Thank you for this love it.

Slight tangent, is svg use now recommended or would is it still better to use html boxes and buttons?

@amunizp I just used the SVGs since they're not actually interactive (and therefore, only decorative).

If they were actually interactive or meaningful to the UI, you'd still want to have them inside the proper HTML element, like a `<button>`, with accessible text descriptions where useful. I think that's what you mean?

@collinsworth
Yes! Exactly what I meant. But now my question is: Can <svg> enhance the <button> tag? Decoration wise or animation wise Or everything svg can provide a button already provides? Or if wanted simply embed svg and give it some sort of tag.

I am of course, speaking pure static HTML/CSS. No JS or PHP or other stuff.

@amunizp You can put SVG inside a button tag, yes, either as an inline element or as an img src, to enhance it. The important thing is just to remember to include accessible text in the button too.
@collinsworth that’s just on point. Thanks for sharing and the laugh! Trying to switch off all those useless (email) notifications in their settings is a nightmare. Took me around 10 minutes clicking through endless categories of options to basically implement the rule “tell me if someone directly tags me or sends a DM”
@collinsworth It’s amazing. You should put it somewhere for posterity.
@collinsworth so many of these are so true! Made my day!
@collinsworth Very accurate, I love it.
@collinsworth Oof. Some of those hit close to home.
@collinsworth This would be AMAZING as a browser plugin a la Cloud-to-Butt!
@collinsworth I thought I'd turned the last one off!!
@collinsworth "sucked more souls than ever" 😂
@collinsworth missing "humble bragging fomo article about some fashionable tech thing to make it look like you kept up with uninteresting hip shit" ;)
@collinsworth 🤣 so well done! Thanks!
@collinsworth This is simultaneously great and horrible.
@collinsworth This is priceless and completely accurate. Esp about the real estate and software developer jobs. Thx!
@collinsworth You've captured the sentiment exactly :chefkiss:

My “favorite"are the ones re-telling a life story, turning it into something related to a work problem, and how it made them reflect on life
@collinsworth That's awesome! I hope you've shared this on #LinkedIn as well. 😁

@collinsworth lol love it.

@jimniels Thwarted by an ad, but excellent move regardless 😂
@collinsworth i wonder if running an ad on the OG rick roll video on youtube is like running a superbowl commerical — just way more $$$ than normal
