Honestly, just delete your Facebook. It’s a better solution and it has the benefit of being officially supported.

This is a lot more difficult than you make it sound without browser extensions to help. Facebook saw to it.

Depends on what you want. If you still want to use FB messenger, sign in with Facebook, view your family pics etc and just don’t want the newsfeed, unfollow everything is what you want.

I’d like to understand your point of view. From the second sentence of your comment, it seems like you’re being sincere and not trying to be hyperbolic. Surely you’re intelligent enough to understand why it would be difficult for some people to _just_ delete their Facebook account and why that would be a point of contention. If you understand this, what exactly compels you to type out your comment and post it? However, if you don’t, then my apologies! And yes, I am fully aware of how this reply comes off.

I deleted my FB probably 10 years ago and never looked back, but most people I know who still have it act like it's some vital part of life which can't be left behind. It's integrated into how people interact with the other people in their life so much they can't get rid of it. It's not so much an addiction as a lifestyle. Telling most people to quit their FB is like telling folks in the US to sell their car and never use a personal vehicle again... they're whole life is structured around that fundamental fact, they can't just leave it behind.

There are lots of weird edge cases where your theoretically-dead Facebook account gets resurrected.. When I deleted mine the second go around I manually deleted and unfollowed everything just in case it comes back. Wish I had known about this extension.

Sadly there’s one thing I do need it for, and that’s the Oculus Quest.
