The Problem

Your LinkedIn feed shows you what you've trained it to show you. If it's full of engagement bait, random viral posts, and people you don't care about, it's because your past behavior told LinkedIn that's what you want.

You can fix this. Here's how.

How LinkedIn's Algorithm Works

LinkedIn learns from every action you take:

• What you like and comment on

• What you ignore

• How long you spend on a post

• Who you engage with most

To reset your feed, you need to break old patterns and create new ones. The algorithm adapts fast—usually within a week of consistent behavior.

Step 1: Clean Out the Noise

Unfollow aggressively:

• Go through your feed and unfollow anyone posting content you don't want to see

• Click the three dots on irrelevant posts → "I don't want to see this"

• Unfollow company pages that no longer matter to you

Important: Unfollowing doesn't remove connections. They won't know.

Step 2: Add Quality Sources

Follow the right people:

• Use LinkedIn search to find people in your industry who post valuable content

• Follow them (you don't need to connect)

• Follow relevant hashtags related to your goals

Give LinkedIn clear signals about what you actually want to see.

Step 3: Engage Selectively

Every interaction is a vote. Be intentional:

• Like only posts that are genuinely useful

• Comment only when you have something real to add

• Save posts you want to reference later

Rule: If you wouldn't share it with a colleague, don't engage with it.

Step 4: Use the "I Don't Want to See This" Button

Keep training the algorithm:

• Use it on irrelevant posts every time they appear

• Mute people whose content consistently misses the mark

• Report spam and obvious engagement bait

The algorithm needs repeated signals. One week of consistent feedback retrains it completely.

Step 5: Engage Deeply, Not Widely

Quality over quantity:

• Spend more time on posts you care about (LinkedIn tracks dwell time)

• Write thoughtful comments, not just "Great post!"

• Reply to people who respond to your comments

Deep engagement signals high value. LinkedIn will prioritize similar content.

The Reset Timeline

With consistent effort, you'll see results:

• Day 3-4: Noticeably fewer irrelevant posts

• Day 7: Your feed looks completely different

• Week 2: The new pattern is locked in

The Problem With Resets

They work, but they require constant maintenance. LinkedIn will always try to pull you back into the algorithm's priorities—more engagement, more time on platform, more noise.

MyFeedIn solves this permanently.

Instead of fighting the algorithm, MyFeedIn blocks the distracting feed entirely. You create custom lists of people who actually matter and see only their posts—no algorithm, no noise, no endless scrolling.

One-time setup. Permanent control.
