So you will not have everything you hate about Facebook – Nyheter24

Few things can be more annoying than Facebook. But there is help! It offers Nyheter24′s Pär Ullrich on a few simple tricks that will make it a little more bearable.

Facebook really sucks. Let’s face it. Sure, it was fun at first, but after almost ten years, is the most annoying.

“Friends” who spams with invitations to games, apps and festivals that take place in countries where you never even set foot. Old classmates after 15 years in radio shadow posting and ask: how is it, really? Family members who just got an account and literally breaks all the unwritten rules about Facebook-savvy. SUCK

But there is hope, and with a few simple tricks, you can make life on the social media giant, slightly more tolerable. Join

pesky invitations

Come on – if I really wanted to spend my free hours spent playing Candy Crush or Mafia Wars, I had enough found the games yourself. I need no one to tell me that they are.

To block calls, tap the arrow next to ” notification “button and go to” settings “. Then go to “blocking” and then you just go mental! You can block users and invitations to apps and events.

You can prevent pages and apps from sending things, or block a specific friend (type your game-crazy relatives) from sending invitations. Hallelujah


The unimaginable congrats mass psychosis

Ahhhhh, is your birthday. But soooo very happy for you

Seriously, how many congratulatory greetings did you get before you got with Facebook? No, just that!

The people who really care about mine, yours or someone else’s birthday can often be counted on one hand. In fact it is not even fun when you fill in yourself. Rather, it’s just a hassle when people who have spent three seconds to write “congratulations” on one wall expecting a like or, worse, a thank you comment.

Again, go to “Settings” and click your way to the “Notifications”. Since the “birthdays” where you press the “edit” button to change to “off.”


Happy name day – now neither you or any of your friends have a birthday anymore. At least not on Facebook.

Unwanted messages

Do you remember that time when your “friend” from primary school who you have not seen in ten years wrote and asked if you would take a break? And do you remember how hard it was when you got a guilty conscience and reluctantly said yes? Mhmmm.

Never again, old “friend”

The “chat list “to the right, below, is an” Options “button that looks like a gear. Click it and click on the “Advanced Settings”. There you can turn off chat completely or for some. You can also prevent specific “friends” from seeing when you are online.


Another thing you can do, that Facebook hid things with, is to turn off” läskvittot “. For it just so all your friends can not only write to you. No, they can see when you’ve read their, probably totally unimportant message.

Although the function is not available as an app on Facebook, you can solve. See how here.

Unfollow muppet friends

We all have Facebook friends who more or less just spewing out the crap. No matter what it is so it’s almost always about attention. See me, see me, see me.

100 posts about lost cats a day, pictures of breakfast, lunch, dinner, and 13 snack shown up with a picture of a well-placed fruit salad in a nice bowl on a sun-drenched terrace overlooking the sea. Not to mention the training images from late nights or early mornings inhuman.

It’s great that you eat, train and care for cats, dogs or red marmosets. Really! But you have to share everything?

This is super simple. The “feed” just press the arrow to the right of your annoying friend’s status and click the “unfollow”.

What are the top stories?

What you see in your feed is manipulated and far from reality. In fact, Facebook decides what is interesting for you. Compare to some unknown creature every day deciding what to eat, wear clothes and check for comics. Quite boring, if you ask me.

There is however a solution to the problem.

Go to “feed”, just below your image, and press the arrow next to the “News Feed” button. Change from the “top stories” to “Most Recent”.


It will not be exactly the latest stories, or all, but it will be still better.

Tag down with

To wake up a morning and find ten pictures from the wet, sweaty and now quite forgotten the party the night before can ruin an entire day. The same applies when your mom puts up piniga nude pictures from when you were a child and writes, “check out how cute my son was before.” Thanks, Mom! Really.

That is not tracked at all hard, but you can at least get rid of the images on your own page. Go to “Settings” and click on the “timeline and tagging.” When “r eView posts friends tag you in before They Appear on your timeline?” press “edit” and change to “yes”.


This means that you must accept the image, text, or whatever it is that you are tagged in before it visible on your page. Easy as pie
