A few weeks ago I went back on Facebook and took the time to try cleaning it up. I went through every shared article and clicked "hide post" and "hide all posts from site". Some bullshit shares still make it into my feed, but mostly it's pictures and actual updates from friends and family again.
This was after I got sick of the crap people were sharing and stopped using Facebook last year. Unfortunately it also meant I missed a few big family events that were announced on Facebook. My brother moved and didn't mention it when I called him because he had posted so much on Facebook that he figured I already knew.

My wife is still really active on Facebook, so I still hear about important stuff that family and friends post through her. If she wasn't on there, I'd probably seek to make it so that I got some kind of daily summary of text posts and events from a specific, very small group of people.
