Work and personal social media

So I recently had a meeting with my line manager where they were basically having a dig at me about “engaging with the team and company, both on teams and sharing posts on LinkedIn.” Now, I said I would be willing to take part more on teams since it's provided by the company, however my LinkedIn is my own personal social media and I get to decide what I like, share and otherwise propagate on this. Upon telling her this, she started to get antsy and basically insist that I need to start engaging with the company on LinkedIn. Am I just being difficult? To me work stays within work, I don't have to engage with it outside of working hours and I don't have to start bringing it into my personal social media.
