How to Block the LinkedIn Feed on Chrome

LinkedIn feels like work, which makes its feed easy to justify. Messages and job listings are useful; the feed usually is not. Redirect can block just the feed with a path rule.

3 steps

Block LinkedIn in under a minute

  1. 1

    Install Redirect

    Add Redirect to Chrome from the Chrome Web Store. Blocking one site is free and needs no account.

  2. 2

    Add a rule

    Open the dashboard, choose specific path and enterlinkedin.com/feed

  3. 3

    Choose how pauses work

    Pick pause lengths and a task to finish first. No task. Keep pauses easy for a site you partly need, and rely on the path rule instead.

Tips for LinkedIn

Make it stick

  • Block linkedin.com/feed only, so messaging, profiles and jobs keep working.
  • Block the whole site during deep work blocks with a second, scheduled rule.
  • Watch your stats on the Focus page to see how often the feed pulls you in.

Questions about blocking LinkedIn

Will LinkedIn messages still work?

Yes. A path rule for linkedin.com/feed only matches the feed. Messaging and other pages are not affected.
