↔️Full-width mode or custom pixel width
🪓Multiple filters to mute unwanted posts
🌍Works on every LinkedIn URL (home, groups, searches)
🖱️Settings sync with your Chrome profile – zero server calls

User preferences stored in chrome.storage.sync (encrypted by Chrome).
No frameworks, no analytics, no third-party CDNs.

Check that you’re logged in on LinkedIn, then press Ctrl+R (hard-refresh). Also verify the extension icon isn’t paused.

Hit “Reset width” in the popup or disable any custom CSS you added manually.

You’ve got 3 options:

Click on the extension icon, and uncheck the “Enable extension” – and refresh LinkedIn, the extension no longer touches it.
Right click the extension ➡️ Manage Extensions ➡️ and disable the extension in the settings. This is Chrome’s built in enable switch.
Or just remove the extension; Chrome wipes its settings instantly.

We allow saving even if a field is incomplete or a setting is mismatched – you’ll just see a friendly warning.

Yes - untick “Hide rails” and leave the “Filter Promoted” option on.

We target core classes; if LinkedIn changes markup we’ll patch quickly.

Open an issue on GitHub and include a screenshot/HTML snippet; we’ll update the filter.

A Web-Extension build is on the roadmap but it’s not priority – star the repo for updates.
