Description from store
This extension hides potential distractions on LinkedIn™, including the newsfeed, suggested news, ads, and suggested people to follow. This lets you get in, get out, and get it done.
This extension is free and opensource. It is is not affiliated with or produced by LinkedIn™. I've gotten a lot of value from LinkedIn™ in the past, and hope this extension will help you use it even more effectively.

- (2025-04-26) Andy Makielski: Just downloaded it and seems to work great. Not sure why this isn't more popular.
- (2025-01-09) Khaled Abu Mazen: took 2 seconds to download it, and it did its job can't ask for more
- (2024-08-25) John Weiss: Please add option to make message body larger in Message page. "Fullwidth messaging for Linkedin" has to be clicked every time you view messages, very inconvenient, and doesn't make the body large enough. Here's my CSS method, but still not big enough on the body (i have a small screen) .scaffold-layout__list-detail {width:150%} .scaffold-layout__aside {display:none}
- (2024-01-25) Philbert Chan: I've been using DF YouTube for a while and was looking for something similar for LinkedIn, specifically for the connections tab. Works great for Jobs tab. Doesn't work for "My network" as mentioned by Matt below (for now).
- (2024-01-02) Sam G: Great concept! I am using Edge and it does not have the "My network"/"Hide suggestions" and it shows all the suggested connections?
- (2023-12-15) Reza Fakhr: Thank you. Some of the feed contents are so annoying that you want to delete your account. This way I don't have to see what I don't like as the feedback also falls on deaf ears.

- (2022-12-26) Amy Sit: The cleaner workspace (and mind space) that I didn't even know I needed. Very easy to use and helps me avoid being bombarded with distracting LinkedIn images/content.

- (2021-11-30) Matt Thurmond: I'm the developer of this free extension and use it on my LinkedIn account weekly to minimize distractions and get in the flow. It works well. Hope you'll give it a shot. This extension is can't see any of your LinkedIn information and never collects any data. It's open source, and you can view the code on github: github.com/mthurmond/slack-hider Thanks, and here's to calmer networking.
