Auto-Expand LinkedIn Posts: Stop Clicking "See More"

Count your clicks during one LinkedIn session. If you actually read your feed, a surprising number of them are the same click, over and over: "…see more".

LinkedIn truncates nearly every post after a couple of lines. Want to read it? Click. Next post? Click. A normal scrolling session means dozens — for heavy users, hundreds — of identical clicks per day, just to read text that's already loaded in your browser.

Why LinkedIn truncates posts

Officially, it keeps the feed compact. In practice, every "see more" click is an engagement signal — a measurable interaction LinkedIn can count and feed back into its algorithm. Truncation turns reading into clicking, and clicking is the metric.

That's also why there's no setting to turn it off. Truncation isn't a bug or an oversight; it's working as intended. For LinkedIn.

Can you expand posts automatically yourself?

This is where DIY hits a wall. Hiding an element with custom CSS is one thing — clicking "see more" for you requires a script that finds the link in the page and triggers it, post after post, as you scroll through an infinite feed.

And the page it has to navigate isn't stable. LinkedIn runs multiple front-end versions at once — React and legacy — with different markup for the same "see more" link, plus continuous A/B tests on top. A script written against one variant fails quietly on the next. Get it wrong and you don't just miss expansions — you can trigger the wrong elements or fight with LinkedIn's infinite scroll.

It's the kind of script that's fun to write once and miserable to maintain forever.

The maintained version of that script

Auto-expand is LinkFeed Pro's flagship feature, and the version problem is exactly what it's built around. The extension detects which LinkedIn front-end you're on and uses the matching pattern to expand every post — instantly, as the feed loads, without breaking infinite scroll and without page redraws.

The result is a feed you read instead of operate. Scroll, read, scroll. No clicking.

Auto-expand is a Pro feature with a 7-day free trial, no credit card required:

1. Install LinkFeed Pro (Chrome, Edge or Firefox)
2. Start the free trial from the extension popup
3. Enable "Auto-expand posts"

If you spend 30+ minutes a day on LinkedIn — recruiters, content creators, job seekers, sales — this single feature pays for itself in clicks alone.

Goes well with

Auto-expanded posts in a narrow column means a lot of vertical scrolling. Pair this feature with the wide feed layout so longer posts use your actual screen, and hide the sidebars while you're at it. That combination is the whole pitch: LinkedIn as a clean reading experience.

FAQ

Does auto-expanding posts count as automation that violates LinkedIn's rules? No. The extension changes how content displays in your browser. It doesn't post, like, connect, scrape or interact with LinkedIn on your behalf.

Does it slow the feed down? No. It's built to work with LinkedIn's infinite scroll without page redraws. Posts arrive already expanded.

Does it expand comments too? It expands post content — the "…see more" truncation on posts in your feed. Comment threads keep LinkedIn's normal behavior.

What happens after the 7-day trial? Pro features stop, free features (sidebar removal, messenger hiding, composer hiding) keep working forever. Upgrade anytime; there's a 14-day money-back guarantee.
