- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17880949, a year agoAs of May 2024, this extension still works on Facebook's 'Mbasic' subdomain. However, since late 2023, 'Disable Facebook News Feed' doesn't seem to work on the standard 'WWW' Facebook website.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Rin08, a year agoThis add-on feels like it gave me my life back. It single handedly broke years of Facebook addiction instantly and I've had a much happier time since. It was a fantastic add on and for this would have been an easy 5/5 Sadly, this add-on no longer seems to work and for that I will have to dock it a star (in the hope it will be updated)
It's had blips in the past and been updated but so far this time it's not been fixed. I still have this add-on installed in the hope it will be updated. Facebook addiction is already creeping back in without it. I really hope you can give us a new update Ankit, but regardless thank you for creating this add-on for the time it did work, it really improved my quality of life! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16903533, 2 years ago11/12/22 All was working well. Nothing was in my Facebook newsfeed. I do not follow anyone on Facebook. In the last 2 or 3 days some of my own posts are showing up in my newsfeed. I removed the extension and reinstalled it, refreshed the page, and still have some of my own posts in newsfeed. Can this be corrected? Thank you.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Scen, 2 years agoReally great add-on, have used it for years and it allows me to still use facebook for messaging and nothing else.
One thing: after a recent change, it also blocks facebook marketplace, so I'm hoping this can be fixed soon.
Thanks for your great work Ankit! - Rated 4 out of 5by zombienixon, 3 years agoWorks alright. Would really appreciate if stories on top and contacts on the right were also disabled. Thanks.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16814624, 3 years agoWorks as intended. Just wish it would block facebook stories too!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16929856, 4 years agocan you add an icon that we can add to the toolbar? like other extensuions do. Id like to be able to turn it on and off without opening the addons menu
- Rated 4 out of 5by JoeCoT, 5 years agoWorks great! Would like it if there was an easy way to turn it on or off besides disabling the extension, but it does the job
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13558593, 7 years agoOpen source would be nice
An useful feature could be to put a personnalized message instead of the newsfeed (as in the chrome version of the app)
Thanks for sharing - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13198627, 7 years agoFixes most everything wrong with Facebook with one simple change.
I wish it was open source, because I don't like installing software from strangers. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13507932, 7 years agoUses a simple CSS rule to hide the news feed. Still loads the feed (and you may see the feed for a split second) so can't give 5 stars but definitely does not (and cannot possibly) steal your data
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13343715, 7 years agoWhat this add-on technically does: it sets the size of the news feed element to zero. Nothing else. So FB frontpage still loads the feed and I can see it for about 1 second, then the add-on starts to kick in.
The add-on is technically very simple and I see no sign of spyware in the source code, contrary to what some reviewers have feared.
