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"?
@galdayan hey Gal, it actually does not make fun of situations that it feels should not be made fun of if the post seems sincere, other than that if the post is good, it will make fun of you for trying to hate on something good haha
@danish_har good to hear it's not purely pattern-matched on "sounds cringe" - that's the difference between a fun tool and one that occasionally punches down without meaning to. curious how much of that judgment is a prompt instruction vs something you had to actually tune with examples.
@galdayan is this an ai...
@danish_har ha, fair question given the product - no, just me overthinking a chrome extension on a tuesday. genuinely just curious about the tuning question though.
Very funny and slightly too real. I spend actual effort keeping this exact voice out of my own writing, so a translator going the other way feels like justice. Honest question though, do people keep it installed once the joke lands? Tools this funny usually get opened five times and forgotten, and I wonder if the TL;DR mode is what turns it into a daily thing.
@henry_s_jung Feel free to try it out and (hope this isnt against the regulations) ask ur coworkers too. hasnt been up long enough for me to answer this with certainty
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.
