A free Chrome extension that translates LinkedIn slop into plain English. One click turns the humblebrags, the hustle-culture LARP and the corporate speak into what they actually meant.
funny concept, but the "fighting slop with slop" part is where I'd want to see it fail gracefully - not every "humbled to announce" post is fake, some people are genuinely posting through a layoff or a hard year dressed up in corporate-speak because that's just how they talk. does deslop ever get run on something like that and turn a real, slightly awkward moment of vulnerability into a punchline, or is the roast mode smart enough to tell "cringe LARP" apart from "sincere but badly written"?
love how it strips away the LinkedIn theater without making it feel mean-spirited, just honest. the one-click placement right where you need it is exactly the kind of small UX choice that makes this feel polished.
@sahinu89740 thanks did u get the chance to try it out?
Would love a toggle for different snark levels, like "diplomatic" for when I'm translating a message from my actual boss vs the default "roast" mode for randos posting their "grateful" Monday reflections. Right now it's all-or-nothing which limits when I can actually use it at work.
the one-click translate hook is genuinely the right call here, no settings menus or fluff. appreciate whoever built this clearly knew when to stop and just let the button do its thing.
