Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter

LinkedIn reach is shrinking, making strategic commenting more effective than posting for visibility and inbound. Comments over 15 words carry roughly 2X the algorithmic weight. Consistent 15 minute daily commenting generated 3-4X more inbound conversations in six months and took 40% less time because comments tap into existing distribution. The most effective comments add relevant experience or sharp questions, while AI-sounding replies get suppressed.
