I'm someone who mindlessly opens tabs whenever I get restless at work (mostly Reddit and Youtube). I used to get sucked into the newsfeed every time, of course, since that's the entire point of a newsfeed. But now, there's nothing there, so if don't have a REASON to be on that site, I just close the tab. It works!

UPDATE !!

Unfortunately the Facebook news feed is still fully visible.

Here are my details:

Operating system: Ubuntu Linux
Firefox version: 147.0.2
Chromium version: 144.0.7559.109

The news feed loads normally and is visible, as if the extension were not active.

To make sure it wasn’t browser-specific, I installed Chromium and tested there as well. The result is the same, the Facebook feed remains visible in both browsers.

However, the extension is working correctly on LinkedIn, Youtube, Instagram etc. Only Facebook seems to be affected.

For context, I am accessing Facebook from Madagascar.

I hope this information helps you track down the issue.

Hi,

This extension is really useful to me.

Unfortunately, it’s no longer hiding the Facebook feed on Firefox 147.0.2. It works on LinkedIn and Instagram, but not on Facebook.

Keep up the good work!

I've been using this add-on for 5+ years to block news feeds on Firefox. I switched to desktop-only for social media use, and this add-on has helped me take back my time. I owe the developer a lot. Would like to buy you a coffee, or 10!

P.S. - After a recent update, it now works on LinkedIn as well!

I've been using this for years and it helped me stay off the addictive sites and actually get some stuff done! Highly recommend!

Does exactly what you want it to! Huge thanks to Mr West for providing this add-on completely free of charge and open-source.

Perfect, works as expected

It's amazing

(edit : awesome, thanks for the fix !)This is a great extension, I am very grateful you created this. I noticed however that blocking on Linkedin stopped working a few months back, it would be awesome if it were fixed !

Works on every website but LinkedIn. LinkedIn blocked on Chrome though. Please fix

Saved me sooo much time and attention...

Thank you for this great add-on!
Is it possible to extend this to Meta's Threads?

Great extension, I've used it for a year. However, on Firefox, LinkedIn doesn't work and isn't eradicated.

perfect extension to remove facebook junk posts from my feed.

This extension is simple and does just what you need, I wish it was a version of this for apps and mobile versions.

Big thanks to the dev, single-handedly saving my PhD from the derailing monkey in my brain
