4. Change Facebook theme to be flat!

Facebook, by itself, doesn’t allow you to change the theme but you can do it using one very excellent Chrome extension. Personally, I feel that the flat look is much better. It blocks ads, Makes Facebook loads faster, and viral news suggestions.

Go to the Chrome Web Store, search for Flatbook or click -> Flatbook , and install it. Click here for more Facebook Themes.

 

5. Disable “Seen” on Facebook messages

 Sometimes ago, I had read a Quora post which said introverts wished there was no “seen” feature on Facebook. I can’t say, how much right it is, but surely there are times when we want to disable that feature.

Facebook doesn’t provide such comfort but you can do it using yet another Chrome extension. It is called “Social Reviver”.

You can just save the particular post. To do this, click on the little drop-down arrow on the top right of a Facebook post and click on the “Save post”. That’s all it takes.

Every one of us has a friend who posts just about everything he does: “Taken lunch, was very tasty!”, “Good night!”, “Today I almost fell from my roof”, etc. One way to stop seeing their posts is to block them but blocking a person also unfriends them which might not be very good for your real-time relationships.

To unfollow someone, visit their Facebook profile and click on “Following”. From the drop-down list select “Unfollow” and you will stop seeing their posts on your news feed.
