Actually, I find that Facebook does a pretty darn good job of showing me content from the friends I actually care about (<100 people) out of my 1000+ "friends" on the platform. In case you want to give it hints, it has nice features like "close friends" (which will pin their posts to the top of your timeline) and unfollowing (for those people you don't want to unfriend but also don't want to see in your timeline).
