Chrome extension for LinkedIn and X

Hide the LinkedIn and X feeds without blocking the tools

Social Silencer is a Chrome extension for LinkedIn and X. It hides the home feed and the timeline with a CSS rule so you can keep using the networks for work. Messaging, search, profiles and jobs stay reachable. Custom CSS selectors hide further elements, settings stay in your browser, and no account is required.

Keep LinkedIn and X. Lose the feed.

  • The endless home feed is hidden; messaging, notifications, search, jobs and profiles are designed to stay available.
  • LinkedIn and X in one extension, with a single switch per platform.
  • Settings stay on your device: no account, no login, and no feed content ever reaches our servers.

Install the extension first: it creates your installation key and starts the purchase for you, so your licence is linked to the right browser automatically.

What the extension looks like

Social Silencer popup in Chrome with a main switch, one toggle for muting the X home feed and one for the LinkedIn feed, plus a line confirming the licence is active.
The Chrome toolbar popup: one main switch plus a separate toggle per platform. The status line shows whether the licence was verified by the server. Screenshot shows the German interface.
  • Main switch for all platforms
  • Separate toggles for X and LinkedIn
  • Licence status shown after server verification
  • Notifications and the composer stay usable

The problem: you come for a message and stay for the feed

LinkedIn and X are work tools — the feed is not. It is exactly what costs you your focus.

  • You open LinkedIn for one application and scroll posts for ten minutes.
  • The “For You” timeline on X is tuned for maximum time on site.
  • Blocking the platforms entirely does not work when you need them professionally.
  • Site-wide blockers also lock you out of messages and profiles.

What Social Silencer does

Four things, nothing more — the extension is deliberately small.

Hide the LinkedIn feed

The post feed on linkedin.com/feed disappears. Messaging, jobs, notifications, search and profiles stay fully available.

Hide the X (Twitter) timeline

“For you” and “Following” on x.com are hidden, and optionally trends and account suggestions too. Direct messages and single posts keep working.

Custom DOM selectors

Add your own CSS selectors to hide further elements when a platform changes its layout or when something else distracts you.

Stored locally, no account

Settings live in your browser via chrome.storage. There is no sign-up, no login and no transfer of feed content.

Editorial note

Platform compatibility is tested manually on LinkedIn and X before each review date shown above. LinkedIn and X change their interfaces without notice, so a rule that works today can stop matching after a layout update. When that happens, a custom CSS selector can be added in the extension and the built-in rules are updated in a later release. Pages on this site are written and maintained by the Mons Altus Ventures GmbH team; no individual author profile is published.
