On: LinkedIn is laying off nearly 700 employees

I wish there was a way to never accidentally click on or navigate to the feed at all on LinkedIn. Could be a good opportunity for a browser extension to just nuke that part of the DOM.

That exists already! I use this one, which works on a bunch of other sites as well: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/news-feed-eradicat...

If you use uBlock Origin you can do

     www.linkedin.com##:matches-path(feed).scaffold-layout__main
     www.linkedin.com##.global-nav__primary-link.global-nav__primary-link--active.app-aware-link

The former will block the main content of the page while on the /feed/ path, while the latter will block the "Home" button in the header nav.

wow I didn't know uBlock Origin was also capable of DOM cleanup. I really need to give that tool a second look.
