My uBlock Origin filters for linkedin which completely cut feeds and all sort of distracting things out (some filters might be outdated, but things work):

www.linkedin.com##.feed-follows-module

www.linkedin.com##.ember-view.feed-shared-navigation-module.overflow-hidden.Elevation-2dp.left-rail-container

www.linkedin.com##.ember-view.pv3.feed-shared-news-module

All this leaves out is the leftmost side (where your number of connections are seen), and the top blue row. The feed is entirely gone. You can still read and message people, see your connections, etc. But no more viewing the feed. It's made my linkedin visits so much easier to bear.

Edit:

Some HN searching shows a single filter which blocks out most of the home page, and is probably cleaner:

www.linkedin.com###voyager-feed

I found the linkedin in super dispiriting (others' success while I failed etc) when applying for jobs and found this lovely extension.

https://www.hidefeed.com/

It simply hides the feed. Then I could apply for jobs/network in peace.

I simply unfollowed everyone. My LinkedIn home page is pretty much blank. There's a script somewhere to batch unfollow your contacts.

It worked so well that I did the same with Facebook and Twitter. I don't even like those websites. Visiting them is more like a reflex.

>>www.linkedin.com##div[class^="feed-shared-update"]

Drop this one. Breaks linkedin for me

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

That's the main feature.

Parent mentionned:

> All this leaves out is the leftmost side (where your number of connections are seen), and the top blue row. The feed is entirely gone.

Ah missed that part. Thanks

Not sure why anyone would even access linkedin at all then? Connections count is essentially meaningless

> www.linkedin.com###voyager-feed

This filter is absolutely perfect! I NEED LinkedIn as I actually get job offers via it, but all the other crap on there can go to hell.

Thank you! I’ll make good use of this filter.
