Same here. There was nothing I could do to get my feed to not be full of provocatively insulting and irritating political posts. I’d unfollow, unfriend, block, say “show me less of this” and so on. But when I’d unfriend some person, very next thing on my feed would be political content I didn’t like from some totally random person on my friend list who I’d never interacted with. Meanwhile I’d notice that people I actually knew in person had life events I’d want to know about - got married, took a nice vacation, had children even, and FB had never showed me stuff like that! So I just stopped using it entirely. Then when I went back after a few years, the site demanded my driver’s license. So guess I will just never sign in again.

Try it out. I'm pretty happy with it; managing the feed doesn't feel like trying to hold back the tides anymore.

While the Algorithm(tm) is complete garbage, you could also probably add less Totally Random Persons(tm) to your "friends" list.

If Totally Random Persons(tm) are getting added automagically, we have bigger problems.

But that would be the wrong solution to the problem. I should be able to add whomever I want, and then be able to mute them permanently.

They were people I was connected to as part of my line of trade.
