News feed is the unique concept introduced by Facebook to the domain of social networking. News feeds regularly keep you up-to-date with what’s happening with to your friends and what they do. As an example, when one of your friends do some action, it will be notified to you if it passes a certain evaluation done by Facebook. For this evaluation, Facebook uses an algorithm which considers a few factors such as actions your friends do, the privacy settings of the all the parties involved, the frequency of the interaction between the friend and you, and the News Feed References.
When it comes to news feed updates, some users experience high frequency compared to the rest. If you have many friends in your Facebook account and if they are highly active, then you should get your news feeds flooded.
If you think that you get too much or too little news feeds, you can always customize the news feed behaviors. Use ‘Preferences’ to adjust how you would like to read and get updated. Same way, you can control what others see about you through privacy settings.
If you get your news feeds flooded by actions of a friend and if you want to remove him/her from the news feed, you have two options: First of all, you can set the preferences to show fewer stories from that user and Facebook will only show you a handful of activities the user does. If you are still irritated, then you can completely remove the user from your friends list, so there won’t be news feeds from him/her.
