User reviews

Users appreciate FBCleaner for effectively removing most ads and suggested posts, thereby cleaning up the Facebook feed to show relevant content. It is praised for being lightweight and user-friendly. However, multiple users report that it sometimes misses ads or suggested posts due to changes in Facebook's system, and occasionally hides legitimate posts including Memories. The add-on is currently unavailable for Firefox Mobile or Android. Overall, while useful, it requires ongoing maintenance to sustain effectiveness and avoid filtering errors.

Improves user experience by cleaning up Facebook feed to show mostly posts from friends and followed pages/groups.

Cons

Does not work on Firefox Mobile or Android versions.
Needs periodic updating to keep up with Facebook changes to effectively filter content.
