My feed is filled with startup/VC/recruiter people liking vibe-orientated junk economics or junk science more than AI. Would love to see a browser like Orion or UBlock Origin just build this in as a feature.
so basically it's /r/linkedinlunatics/ ?
Why do people use LinkedIn? I think I had an account for 10 years and all I got was recruiter spam. Coworkers all use it. For what I don’t know. None of them were hired from there.
Just add this to uBlock origin: ``` linkedin.com##main#workspace section:has(div[componentkey*="container-update-list_mainFeed-lazy"]) ```
new style for feed -> paste:
[data-testid="mainFeed"]{display:none}
in full:

My version of a feed blocker was to delete my account. Realized i was getting no value by being there, finally just let it go.
I'd love to be able to filter the feed so it only shows me actual posts by my connections. I do not care about comments my connections made on strangers' posts, and I surely do not care about posts by strangers that my connections 'liked'. Anyone know if such a tool exists?
Built one 6 years ago that I gave up on https://github.com/mihailthebuilder/simplyfeed . The problem was that so many posts were filtered out that the feed would just show up empty.
> the user-facing software of Facebook is categorically, fundamentally coercive. It's like an arbitrary code execution exploit running on our brains. Scrolling down is the program counter, and the content that pops up is the instructions.

The web, at least on the interface side, is really easy to customize these days. Agents are pretty good at spinning out Chrome extensions. e.g. you can easily reduce the intensity of feed-based UI by removing thumbnails, grayscaling, etc.
My biggest question is why isn't there something better than Linked In? I get the network effect but Linked in is crap.

I have gotten jobs through contractions on it, which materially improved my life.
And I have old acquaintances that I like to know what they’re up to/to keep options open.
