Features & Capabilities

Your feed, reclaimed.

LinkedIn's feed is full of "comment CLAUDE and I'll send you the framework" posts — low-effort engagement bait that clogs your feed, wastes your time, and adds nothing. LinkedIn's own reporting often leaves them up, because empty comments are exactly what the algorithm rewards.

LinkedIn Spam Blocker removes them for you — automatically, locally, and with zero effort on your part. Install it, open LinkedIn, and the spam disappears while real professional content stays.

Why you'll want it

  • It does the work for you — 10 built-in detection patterns across 5 languages (English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, German) catch the most common spam structures as you scroll. No setup, no lists to maintain.
  • It learns and adapts — add your own phrases, block authors you don't want to see, whitelist the ones you do, and teach it what's spam in your feed.
  • You stay in control — every hidden post shows a subtle placeholder: restore it, mark it as "not spam", report a missed one to the developer, or hide an author entirely — all from the feed itself.
  • It respects you — zero analytics, zero telemetry, zero network requests. Everything runs in your browser. Nothing leaves your machine, ever.
  • It just works — Manifest V3 for Chrome and Firefox, works across feed, profiles, posts, company pages, groups, search, and more.
Features
  • Automatic detection — 10 built-in patterns across 5 languages
  • "Block this author" — from any blocked post's placeholder or a profile-link right-click, hide every post from that author feed-wide
  • Author whitelist — never block the people you actually want to see
  • Custom phrases — exact or contains matching; right-click any text to add it instantly
  • Full settings backup — export and import phrases, whitelist, blocklist, disabled patterns, and hide toggles
  • Per-pattern toggles — disable a single pattern, not a whole language
  • Match attribution — see which pattern or phrase triggered each block
  • "Report missed spam" — placeholders copy the post text to your clipboard and open a pre-filled GitHub issue (reports include which language matched); nothing is sent automatically
  • "Show all" — restore everything hidden this session with one click
  • Snooze — pause blocking for 30 minutes
  • Hide Promoted & Featured — optional feed-hygiene toggles
  • Undo and false-positive controls — "Show", "Not spam", and exclusion review from the settings page
  • Privacy-first — local-only, zero data collection
  • Chrome & Firefox — fully compatible (Manifest V3)
What it does not do
  • Does not report posts to LinkedIn or interact with LinkedIn servers
  • Does not remove posts for anyone else
  • Does not block accounts globally
  • Does not use AI, external APIs, or remote blocklists
  • Does not collect analytics, telemetry, browsing history, or LinkedIn account data
Install it once. Forget it's there. Enjoy your feed again.

Is LinkedIn Spam Blocker Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

LinkedIn Spam Blocker requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

  • High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

LinkedIn Spam Blocker may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
