I did that for Facebook (unfollowed everyone but my direct family). It worked great for a time. Now my feed is filled to the brim with suggested posts from pages and groups that have nothing to do with me and low-quality fake AI images to push controversial fake news. It's become unusable unfortunately, so I don't use it anymore.

upthread is linked socialfixer plugin, it seemed exactly what i wanted so i installed it and ... it's exactly what i wanted. Just my friends and a couple groups i actively joined, on purpose. I don't know how facebook differentiates "joined by commenting" vs "joined by request", but it seems to do it. You can also tell it to stop scrolling, defaults to 10 posts. you can tell it to order chronologically, instead of "the algo".

I read this post whenever it was made (the OP) and i'm glad i read downpage a bit, because i remembered 3 plugins mentioned, and the other one is fbpurity, and the third is i forget, but the Vet mentioned it i think (ctrl-f vet)
