This post is dedicated for users of Facebook, especially those to whom they are not interested in the least see who are Fulanito's new friends, or what the latest application of phrases from friend Menganita says. How to remove all this unwanted content? Easy: with a script compatible with the browsers Firefox, Google Chrome / Chromium, Safari and Opera. |
The Script
Is called FB Purity, and was created by a Facebook user who simply despaired of seeing all the "news" on his News Feed, the main page of FB. What it basically does is do not allow that those publications appear (about quizzes, games, phrases, etc.) and only leave what the user is interested in.
Once you have it installed, go to Facebook, or if you are already logged in, reload the page. On your main page (News Feed or Noticias) a new line will appear, as in the image.
If you click on "FB Purity" you access the script settings, where you choose what you want to see or not in your news feed.
Click on the "show" option next to apps, if you want to allow the publications of certain applications to appear. First they click on "allow" or "allow" and then confirmation windows appear to add that app to their whitelist.
Firefox
