Facebook Tests News Feed Controls That Let People See Less From Groups And Pages

Facebook announced Thursday that it’s running a test to give users a sliver more control over what they see on the platform.

The test will go live on Facebook’s app for English-speaking users. It adds three sub-menus into Facebook’s menu for managing what shows up in the News Feed: friends and family, groups and pages and public figures. Users in the test can choose to keep the ratio of those posts in their feed at “normal” or change it to more or less, depending on their preferences.
