This. You can already have it on LinkedIn in the EU at least, “sort by recent” instead of “sort by relevant”. Imho its very effective, turns me off within 20 seconds instead of 5 min. If the effect works similarly on less cringe platforms, i can see this as a huge win for consumers.

My bad, mixed it up with this: https://github.com/mijorus/gearlever

This has a “check for updates” function, I’ve never bothered using it though.

You might want software like this: https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher
