<![CDATA[I was today years old when I found out LinkedIn has a chronological timeline mode*, and why LinkedIn recommends against enabling it in the settings.]]>I was today years old when I found out LinkedIn has a chronological timeline mode*, and why LinkedIn recommends against enabling it in the settings. Because once you do, you’ll see that people aren’t talking about AI, agents and LLMs anywhere near as much as LinkedIn would have you think. My feed just went from ~90% AI hype to one with only the occasional post on the topic. Almost as if one of the companies most invested in the bubble would use a platform they own to inflate it.

(Could be that it’s an EU-only thing? I remember hearing about an EU requirement like this in the past. If so, I’m sorry if it’s not available to you. The free market will sort it out, I’m sure.)

I noticed a big difference in my use of LI before and after the app: I'm definitely more out of the loop now, but I've finally broken free of their algorithm's clutches.

Obviously, this is not what LI likes, but screw that hellhole; if it wasn't necessary evil, I wouldn't be using it anyway,

I changed it and it feels like a different site. Instead of everyone being 10x being more productive due to AI, suddenly, I see posts about people handling work burnout and some small local co-working initiatives... It should not surprise me, but it did much more than I'd expect.

De-enshittifying LinkedIn.com for the little that I actually use it. It's a GOOD thing.

it's available in the US (choose time order rather than "recommended"). you can also choose to not see political posts.

it's still the cesspool that is linkedin but is a shallower, easier to wade through cesspool.

LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft, so it’s pretty obvious why it would be doing that.

I know this was possible on xitter also, except that xitter would sneakily revert to the algorithm after a while and you'd have to manually throw the switch again.

The "after a while" became shorter and shorter over time.

(I don't know what it's like now, I left a few years ago).
