Filter posts in the news feed by content, author, link url, and more

Built-in Filter Subscriptions let you just pick a filter and use it without knowing how it works.

Pre-defined filters include hiding Sponsored Posts, Political posts, things your friends like, and much more.

Hide posts you've read and are done with, so they don't appear in the news feed anymore.

Best thing that happened to Facebook.

used to work great but doesn't seem like its being maintained at all anymore? more and more hidden by extension stuff keeps creeping in , first it was reels , now its suggested posts , its basicly just not working anymore apart from the anti doom scrolling feature that kicks on way too soon (after 1 post these days sometimes) vs after a bit.

Apparently this is no longer available to enable in chrome because 'it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions'. What's the issue?
