I think its actually deliberately slow. They dont want people automating activity like mass messaging, or mass commenting on stuff

I certainly agree with you, but this can't be news. It seems to have been slow and buggy for at least the last 10 years.

It's slow because AI runs continuously behind the scenes tracking you non-stop, if you type, if you navigate, if you click somewhere, and so forth...I have the impression that every single end point belongs to different webservice, because if I refresh it, sometimes it fetches partial data, sometimes it won't pull anything at all, and at random times it works as expected.

In conclusion, LinkedIn is dead as we once knew it and has become a massive AI slop, a dating app believe it or not(!), and full of narcissists that have supposedly succeeded in life, trying to convince themselves with their own lies. PATHETIC!

It has been around for a while when you layer code on code it does not feel good over time.
