## Description

FB Filter helps reduce distractions on Facebook by hiding the feed, posts, and other selected page areas.

By default, it keeps Messenger available and blocks distracting Facebook content before the page finishes loading. With Custom configuration, you can choose which areas remain visible: navigation bar, left navigation, contacts sidebar, Messenger, notifications, feed and posts, stories, groups, and sponsored content.

The extension also supports favorite profile shortcuts and focus message quotes shown in the browser interface language.

FB Filter works locally in the browser. It does not include ads, analytics, tracking, affiliate functionality, remote code, or any connection to a Squeevio backend.
