Recently, Facebook altered how its news feed settings appear so users choose from one of the two options available either:
- "Program posts from friends and Pages you communicate with the most" or
- from "all friends and Pages."
Some are stuck with the default settings which is the former
i.e. receives posts from friends and pages they communicate with the most, hereby
triggering a great deal of material to be concealed from them without their
understanding. In this article, we will put you through how you can alter your Facebook news Feed setting.

Formerly users have the choice to pick precisely the number of their friend’s post they saw. It's not precisely clear exactly which of the two options users get as default, be it the first or the second. But more recent accounts appear most likely just to be seeing posts from some of their friends.

Users can by hand configure this setting by scrolling to the
bottom of their news feed and clicking the "Edit Options" link. Which
loads the "Edit Your News Feed Settings" window where users can pick
from the two "Program posts from" alternatives.
Users can also handle the list of friends, pages, and applications they have concealed from their news feed by clicking the 'x' button beside their posts and opting to "Conceal all by the author."

Of recent, Facebook's news feed settings have ended up being
much easier. Formerly, users have the ability to control sliders for each kind
of story to manage how typically they appeared. But now, users might increase
or reduce the occurrence of particular friend’s in-line from the news feed.
Before the present user interface, users were defaulted to seeing posts from their 250 closest friends unless they increased the optimum which was ranked on basis of contacts and chats.
When you want to make the decision on whether to see posts from all or just some good friends and Pages, users need to consider how typically they skim previous dull updates in their feed. If it's just a couple of specifically loud good friends that are jumbling their feed, they need to simply conceal those users. If they are often tired or believe there's excessive to check out, they need to pick to just see a some.
