Daniel Truong (ID: 000000bef900eeba) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/21/2023 This thing is freaking magic. Unlike a lot of other social media sites, I REALLY hate Linkedin's feed because that's where the braggadocio is especially rampant. I couldn't log onto my Linkedin account without seeing people posting about new jobs they got or new promotions and reminding me of my own inadequacies. With one press of a switch, my problem went away and I can actually focus on what I have to offer instead of what I lack. If I could donate to this guy I would cause this extension is a keeper!
