About Frosted
Frosted blurs the cringe on your LinkedIn feed. Humble-brags, engagement bait, hustle-culture posturing, performative struggle, manufactured wisdom. Frosted catches them and blurs them in real time, so you can actually use LinkedIn for work again. Click any blurred post to reveal it. You're in control.
What gets blurred
- "Humbled to announce..." career announcements that double as flexes
- "Read that again." / "Stop scrolling." / "Tag someone who needs to hear this." engagement bait
- "5 things I learned from getting fired" manufactured wisdom posts
- "While you were sleeping I was grinding" hustle-culture posts
- "I'll be honest..." faux-vulnerability openers
- Clap-emoji-between-every-word posts like this one
- 133 patterns total, and growing.
How it works
Everything runs entirely on your device:
1. Pattern matching. 133 rules check every post the moment it loads in your feed. Strong matches blur immediately. No network, no delay.
2. You set where the line falls. Posts that land between "clearly fine" and "clearly cringe" are decided by their pattern score against your sensitivity setting, so you choose how much benefit of the doubt they get.
A sensitivity slider (Low / Medium / High) lets you tune how aggressive the filter is. Tested against 105 hand-labelled LinkedIn posts (55 cringe, 50 normal): on the default Low setting Frosted caught 49 of the 55 cringe posts and blurred 3 of the 50 normal ones by mistake. Raise the sensitivity to catch more, at the cost of more false blurs.
Privacy
Frosted makes zero network requests. No server, no API, no analytics, no account. Post content is processed locally and never transmitted by Frosted to anyone. The extension stores your settings and session stats in your browser's local storage.

What Frosted doesn't do
- Doesn't block or hide posts. Only blurs them. Click to reveal anything.
- Doesn't modify LinkedIn's algorithm, API, or your activity on LinkedIn.
- Doesn't scrape or collect post content.
- Doesn't filter sponsored or promoted posts. Those are excluded by design.
- Doesn't work outside the LinkedIn web feed.
Languages
English and Hebrew. Hebrew-native cringe archetypes are covered by dedicated patterns.
Beta
Frosted is in early beta. New cringe patterns are added regularly based on real-world usage. If you spot a false positive (clean post got blurred) or false negative (cringe post got through), the feedback buttons help us improve the filter. All feedback stays on your device until you choose to share it.
