Show HN: DelinkedIn – A Chrome extension that roasts LinkedIn job listings

Hacker News - Wed, 03/26/2025 - 7:07am

I am fed up with LinkedIn job listings.

They’re all full of vague buzzwords — 'team player,' 'self-starter,' stuff like that - so many words, so little substance. I'm over wasting my time reading their HR word salad.

So I built DelinkedIn. It's a Chrome extension that roasts LinkedIn job listings. It uses Grok AI to turn HR fluff into harsh reality:

‘Fast-paced environment’ becomes ‘You’ll never catch your breath.’ ‘Wearing many hats’ turns into ‘One salary, five jobs.’ ‘Collaborative culture’ is now ‘Endless meetings, no decisions.’

It’s a quick hack - grabs the job description, sends it to Grok, and swaps in the rewrite. Took me a day to throw together. You can install the .crx from delinkedin.com while it’s pending Chrome Store review (fingers crossed it's approved soon).

There are 5 'cynicism levels' you can choose from in the extension settings. Obviously level 5 is the best. I may even turn it up another 3 notches.

Curious what people think — will this hit a nerve? I sure hope so.
