Show HN: I built cringe-guard, filters out cringe content on your LinkedIn feed

2 points| pankajtanwar | 1 year ago |github.com

I was really frustrated with the quality of content on my LinkedIn feed - engagement baits, overly emotional stories, generic life lessons, motivations quotes, low effort useless posts. Some % of the content was genuinely good. So, I built a chrome extension to filter out cringe content. It uses AI to analyse LinkedIn posts in real time and hides cringe worthy content.

This prototype demonstrates how AI can empower us to have more control over the content we consume.

So it blocks all of LinkedIn? I'm in! ;)

Haha, It ended up filtering out ~70% of the content, which makes me rethink using LinkedIn altogether.
