Sort feed by Most Relevant and Most Recent posts

Last updated: 6 months ago

Important to know

Members in the UK, European Economic Area (EEA), and European Union (EU) can still use the sort filter to organize their feeds based on the most recent posts. This change will only impact members outside of the UK, EEA, and EU who access LinkedIn on desktop. 

At LinkedIn, our goal is to make it as easy as possible for you to find relevant content in your feed. To achieve this, we’re continually improving our content recommendations and simplifying your experience.

As part of these improvements, we’ve removed the sort filter on desktop for some members, bringing the experience in line with the LinkedIn mobile app, where content is already organized by relevance and recency. This change is part of our ongoing effort to make your feed simpler and more streamlined.

You can still see your feed to be organized by relevance and recency. However, if you want to view your feed by the most recent posts, you can update your settings to make this your default.

To change your feed view:

  1. Click the Me icon at the top of your LinkedIn homepage.

  2. Select Settings & Privacy from the dropdown. Account preferences is selected, by default.

  3. Under General preferences, click Preferred Feed View.

  4. From the Preferred Feed View page, select your preferred permanent feed view. The change is automatically saved.

If Most relevant posts (Recommended) is set as your preferred permanent feed view:

  • You’ll see the most recent posts from people you follow. Your interests and activity data won’t be used to sort your feed.
  • You’ll see updates from your network when using an EU IP address.
  • You’ll see relevant updates in reverse chronological order when you are not using an EU IP address.

Notes:

  • After the feed view preference is made permanent from the Settings page, your feed will always show the selected feed view.
  • Your ad personalization preferences are not affected by changes to the Feed Preferences setting. To control your ad personalization preferences, go to your Advertising preferences setting.
  • If you are located in the European Economic Area and in the Most Recent feed view, you will see all updates from your network in reverse chronological order.
  • If you are located outside of the European Economic Area and in the Most Recent feed view, you will see the updates most relevant to you in reverse chronological order.
