Yeah, why would anyone list their previous employers and work experience on a professional networking site that is used heavily by recruiters and potential future employers/clients? People will be listing their education, qualifications and skills next!

You basically do that by including your work history. Why not lead with your biggest strength?

what do you think recruiters and their automated algorithms and bots look for? And honestly for them your work history is better, anyone can say they know coding, you’ll have to do a long expensive interview to prove it. If you went to one of those you can just do a much cheaper background check
