LinkedIn, minus the noise.

See only posts from your connections — no ads, clutter, or distractions.

It quietly filters your feed as you scroll

OnlyFirst quietly filters your LinkedIn feed as you scroll, so you only see what your actual network is posting.
  • –Promoted / sponsored posts
  • –Posts from 2nd- and 3rd-degree connections
  • –Business or company posts not tied to a 1st-degree connection
  • –The “Today’s puzzles” sidebar widget
  • –The “Add to your feed” sidebar widget

Toggle it, watch the count.

Turn filtering on or off anytime from the toolbar icon. A small counter shows how many posts were shown vs. hidden on the current page load.

Everything stays on your device.

Everything runs locally in your browser. OnlyFirst doesn’t collect, store remotely, or transmit any of your data — see the privacy policy for details.

Why install LinkedIn OnlyFirst

LinkedIn OnlyFirst Chrome extension

Professional networks are useful, but their feeds are crowded. Sponsored posts, suggestions and viral content often push aside updates from the people you actually know. As a result, important news from colleagues gets lost.

This extension takes a simple approach. It hides everything that does not come from your direct connections. In addition, it works quietly in the background, so there is nothing to configure.

How LinkedIn OnlyFirst helps your focus

First, you spend less time scrolling. Then the content you see becomes more relevant. For example, you notice when a former colleague changes jobs or publishes an article.

The extension does not change your account or your network. Instead, it only adjusts what your browser displays.

LinkedIn OnlyFirst is lightweight and easy to switch off. Moreover, it does not post, like or message anything on your behalf. You can disable it with a single click whenever you want to see the full feed again.

Installation takes only a few clicks from the Chrome Web Store.

In short, a cleaner feed means better attention. Therefore, try it for a week and compare how you use the network. For example, count how many useful updates you find each day.
