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!

Worst UI update ever. I love the previous simple and clean UI

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 not working for linkedin home feed. needs to be updated.

It's amazing

Sure it blocks the news-feed on FB... but it also breaks the browsers ability to save your place on any given page you happen to visit and scrolled on, and reverts you to the top of the page if you click on a link, say in marketplace... you go to view the listing and you click back, your prior place is lost and you have to scroll all the way back to where you were... not how the browser is supposed to function.

Hope the author can fix this, because it happens off site (non- facebook sites) as well when the extension is enabled; disabling the extension reverts the browser back to normal function...

(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?

Doesn't do anything to linkedin.

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