Kills the news feed and replaces it with a message reminding you not to get distracted. That's it. You can still check your messages and notifications, post status updates, and do everything you could do before. You just won't get distracting news feed posts anymore.

No more wasting time on Facebook. No more getting distracted when you log on to send a message. It's that simple.

**Updated on April 5, 2020 to support the new Facebook redesign and also to remove stories.

**Updated on Sep 27, 2022 to support the new Facebook redesign (again).

Its a great app. The only thing that kind of bothers me is that it also blocks marketplace ads. Market is about the only thing i use regularly so i have to enable/disable extension everytime. Maybe add a separate site access option to disallow extension access to *.facebook.com/marketplace* ?

To było świetne rozszerzenie, niestety od miesiąca chyba przestało działać. :((

This extension has saved me SO much time over the years. Have recommended it to many friends. For the last week though, it has started blocking some non-newsfeed pages (E.g. currently can't see Facebook marketplace). Would be great if an update is coming to fix this. Thanks!

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Kill News Feed requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

High Injects scripts into web pages, which may alter or extract site contents, resulting in a substantial risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.
