I'm increasingly frustrated with my Facebook feed. It used to be a place where I could connect with friends and family, see what they were up to, and discover new things through their recommendations. However, lately, my timeline has been dominated by articles, blog posts, and reels from groups I've never joined.

It seems like the algorithm is prioritizing content based on assumed interests, rather than actual connections. I'm no longer seeing updates from friends and relatives, which is what I primarily use Facebook for.

I'd like to revert to a more personalized feed that focuses on the people I know and care about. I want to see what my friends are sharing, what they're recommending, and what's happening in their lives.

I am not interested on those memes and articles they recommend or groups they want me to join

I don't know how those reels are boosted to invade people's timelines.

I wish they have a friends only filter or followed only filter since I hate these blogs and groups they are forcing me. I have to manually visit my friends to get updates of them

How many your friends is still active? I know many my friends are not or if you ignored they posts, facebook will not have anything to show you from them.

[Netherrealmer]

They are all still active but I have to visit them manually because blogs have taken cover facebook

Facebook used to be great in staying touch with family and friends, but now it feels more like a feed of random articles and videos.

[JASPREET]

This is happening with Instagram too so now you need to search for a friend to find their post because other posts are pushing it away

[Netherrealmer]

I dont follow those blogs and groups but the algorithm wants me to see them instead of people I know

[Tendz]

Social media these days are showing more posts from brands, memes, or groups instead of updates from our close ones. We all have to search for friends posts instead of seeing them in our feeds.

and this change is annoying because before I dont need to manually visit their profiles. Now I am seeing blogs i never subscribed too and blocking them is useless as they will be replaced by other blogs.

i have to DM or go direct to friends pages now. or text them to see how they are...

I am getting Christmas wishes from my friends but lately my wall is full of excercise and workout tutorials. Just watch one and wall will be full of it. Some people intention google or search some phrases since standard ads are boring.

[Netherrealmer]

and this blog invation is annoying me

[arunima]

Even my timeline is bombarded with blogs and reels than the real friends connection. That is very annoying at times. While some of these reels are linked to my interests some are just useless and based on some one time search that I would have done.

[Netherrealmer]

I wish we are given the option to have preference whether we want to see friend activities on our timeline or we want to see blogs.
