More Facebook Shenanigans

Facebook has done it again. They decided that their crazy success is not good enough and have fucked with the news feed. I don't really know why but I hated it from the instant it happened. I don't want some bullshit algorithm trying to figure out what I will find an important thing in my feed. It gave you the option to accept all posts, some posts, or none.

Fuck that. I can decide what I want to read by reading it, and not reading what I don't want to read. Pretty simple. It's like with television. If I don't like a show, I change the channel. It's my choice. I don't want them choosing anything for me.

There is a way to fix the feed. You go to account settings, language, and change it to English(UK) and the feed reverts to normal. I posted on my wall and told the people how to do it. And I went on a website and let the knowledge loose. So hopefully there are enough people that protest to make FB go back.

But I really don't have much hope. Eventually they will change it worldwide and fuck up their business model. It's really sad that they have a hard time with their own mega success.

Maybe it's time to jump over to Google+ and see what it is like. Before that gets fucked up too.

WELL, that fix has now been thwarted by facebook.

There is a work around. I created a list for all and look at that feed rather than the main page.

In order to make your newsfeed look like it did & to see EVERYONE a friend of mine did this:
On your home page, to the left there is a section called lists. If you click on it it will bring up all your lists and let you create a new one. Click on create a new one call it "ALL" and add all your friends...Then on your home page click on all and the entire news feed comes up for them...If you don't want to see from everyone leave off who you don't want on that list... I had to select everyone individually the first time, but it's quick clicking.
