How to Prune Out of Touch FB Content

Facebook allows users to like a page, follow it, or do both at once. Liking a page demonstrates your support for it, but you won’t see the content posted by the page admin in your feed. If you follow a page, Facebook will show you posts, events, and other activities posted from that page in your news feed.

Those who don’t want to see the content of any particular page in their feed can unfollow it. We’ll show you different ways to unfollow a Facebook page on the web and your mobile device.
