I haven't see an QAnon content but I have begun to see more content that feels more personal (political) than professional, which is frustrating enough (IMO).

Well, that's disconcerting to hear.

Linkedin is currently attacking millions of their core user base in the US right now, which most are business owners and managers. Most black conservatives have been deleted off Linkedin over the last month. Even myself, Not one single issue in over a decade, 2,700 connections, high profile, not a sales profile, but defense sector and aerospace...

My profile got wiped out for TOS violation, which was fake. Then 3 days to get my profile back, and 18 more FAKE tos violations between then and friday all 1 every other day like clockwork like a person intentionally making their rounds and doing it on person there at linkedin. Example, like commenting on a military conflict post by a defense blog, and then wiped out again friday. 3 days now, not even a response. Millions of people listen to my comments and advice off linkedin in media and management of corporations. Yet alone family in management at microsoft who own facebook.

I am now going to be recommending throughout the business sector and government, to avoid Linkedin at all costs, as I have been watching MILLIONS also be attacking by Linkedin in the same way, and several hundred of my own contacts on the platform have disappeared since late summer. And I know first hands, SEVERAL 25,000+ connection users have been wiped out too, all because they are not leftists, exclusively.

Josh, thanks so much for tackling the story and helping combat disinformation.

Here is an important clue, I believe, to what took place on LinkedIn's platform before you reached out to them. It comes from the two respected investigative reporters at NBC News:
