Not an external remedy, but one thing I wish Facebook would do is offer the equivalent of rel="nofollow" for engagements. I know there's a separate workflow for "show me less like this" or "mute this user for 30 days" but that feels more like me creating my own little banlist. Instead, I want a box I can tick which means "I'm posting here to fact-check this or attempt to correct the record; please don't treat this as an engagement for the purposes of recommending this link/story/comment to others, or for finding more things like it for me to look at."
I know it's still counter to their business because ultimately outrage -> engagements -> ad impressions. But I can't help thinking it might be a start.
