Questions

How many characters show before "see more" on LinkedIn?

Roughly 140 characters on mobile and 210 on desktop, or about three lines, whichever comes first. LinkedIn does not publish an exact number and it changes with screen width.

Do line breaks change where the post is cut?

Yes. Short lines with breaks can hit the three-line limit before the character limit, so fewer characters show.

What should go before the cutoff?

Your hook: the one line that makes someone want to tap "see more". Avoid greetings or context-setting there.

Is my post text sent anywhere?

No. The preview runs in your browser.
