Since morning, I've been seeing an image floating around with the text "LinkedIn releases new dating feature to help like-minded professionals find love." Intrigued, I decided to investigate further, only to find out that Marketing Humor shared this same image on 23rd May. Almost a month ago. This is a classic example of how people blindly follow the crowd without fact-checking. In the era of viral content, it's easy to get swept up in the excitement. But here's a gentle reminder: always ensure the authenticity before sharing, especially if it impacts your professional credibility. Why do we do this? Is it the fear of missing out? The need to be in the loop? Next time, let’s take a moment to verify and not just follow the crowd. What's your take on this? Have you fallen for a viral post without fact-checking? Let's discuss below.

I'm guilty of this too from time to time. I think part of it is our innate tendency to trust things that come from people in our networks or social circles even if not verified

I think part of it is just human laziness. It's easier to retweet than open a new tab and fact check every single thing

I definitely saw that image going around and nearly shared it myself before I realized it was just a joke.
