Pissed at interviewers going back on their promise - what to do?

Classic company promised me one thing but they went back on it. Looking for advice on how to proceed from here.

I managed to get an onsite interview with this one fund that started up recently and looking to add a quant-like person. The role is pretty open-ended and it seemed like they were looking for someone who can pitch them a vision. 

The founding members of the team are all pretty experienced and the senior members seemed pretty smart as well.

During the onsite, I laid out my plan + shared some concerns I want to address to see how realistic it is. At the end of the interview one of the heads of the group and I discussed how to quantify my value add, where to start, how long would projects take, etc... I was also asked to share my perspectives with the other head of the group on a later date. 

So naturally I was expecting to hear back. I followed up a week later. No response. Next week I follow up again. Another week later I get a boilerplate rejection email.

At this moment I found out that they made a new LinkedIn post for a job I was interviewing for week and a half before, soon before my 2nd follow up. I looked up the job descriptions and some of it seems vaguely related to the ideas I brought up.

Not accusing them of anything but I am very upset about this situation and looking for advices. What's the best way to follow up with them? I actually liked the team so don't want to burn bridges but at the same time I'd like some explanation. This just feels like a weak move on their part. Or perhaps there was something I could've done differently.

 

Quas accusamus aspernatur fugit animi animi quia assumenda. Deserunt inventore fugit aut sit est repellendus atque. Ipsam temporibus nobis voluptate natus sint et.

Quisquam nulla minus soluta rerum. Aperiam adipisci debitis laboriosam ut. Culpa ullam sed minus ut ut ut non. Dicta est qui voluptatem laudantium.

Quidem nam in magni laboriosam cumque error ad et. Provident nam consequuntur accusamus error. Ratione quidem mollitia facere eaque.
