Extension summary

Block ads & promotions posted on LinkedIn. Filter through posted content.

Zelos is a chrome extension that runs in the background and blocks out "Promoted" posts on LinkedIn. 1 in 10 posts on the LinkedIn feed are "promoted," and these posts distract the user from other opportunities on LinkedIn. We are providing a free service to remove these posts for the user.

Not only does Zelos filter out promoted posts. But Zelos provides a widget for the user to view the total number of promoted posts blocked on LinkedIn. This widget helps the user gauge the effectiveness of the tool.

Version 1.0

  • LinkedIn filter for "Promoted" posts.
  • Zelos widget for keeping track of total number of posts blocked.

Future Updates

  • Automatic categorization of posts on LinkedIn.
  • Premium feature to filter out posts by Celebratory, Opinion, Opportunity, Storytime, etc.

Permissions:

  • storage: required for communicating to the widget the number of blocked posts from the script that is blocking posts on LinkedIn.

Blocked EVERYTHING from showing. There is nothing visible, it blocked everything. Sure it blocked all the adverts, but it simply blocked everything.
