LinkedIn just destroyed their search engine and now it's worthless. (self.linkedin)<br>submitted 12 hours ago by Kalbo_8888

LinkedIn just quietly replaced its search with AI and gutted the filters that actually worked and is now completely worthless.

No notice. No opt-out.

Salary filters? Gone. “Remote” no longer means remote and now shoves hybrid roles on the far side of the country into your results.

Searches that used to return 4–5 solid matches now dump hundreds of irrelevant listings with no salary information. What was a quick, effective process is now a time-suck of manual garbage filtering.

They removed these capabilities after taking my money. That’s a breach of contract. They changed the product, kept the cash, and refused a refund.

This isn’t a minor update. It’s a degradation of the core tool people pay for, forced on everyone without consent.

If this pisses you off too, say something. Flood their feedback. Demand the old search back. Don’t let them quietly break a product and collect Premium fees for a worse version of it.

[–]Leroche_Rouge 38 points39 points40 points 12 hours ago (2 children)<br>I was just wondering what's going on with my search option, as it is literally giving me attorney roles, while I specifically search for paralegal ones — a huge difference, since any paralegal can get imprisoned for impersonating an attorney, lol.

Honestly, their premium was always overpriced, and I hadn't found it useful, so I just canceled earlier this month.

[–]ClickCommercial734 5 points6 points7 points 8 hours ago (0 children)<br>I think it's the typical behavior of companies reducing the quality of services in order to charge more for higher tiers. Since you're looking for paralegal roles, perhaps this would be of use to you instead:...
