I mean sure, I could understand Figma's frontend or something having millions of lines but what does linkedin frontend do that would reasonably require this?


My guess is that it's because there are 800 different versions of everything because none of the company's 13,000 UI/UX designers are willing to use the same component libraries.


Blaming 2,000,000 lines of code on UX designers, and not the developers, is certainly a new one.
