You need to enable the "Hide inline suggestions" option to remove those.

NguyenASang commented 2 years ago

@mgziminsky But I don't want to remove "Suggested Posts". Can you add a separate option?

mgziminsky commented 2 years ago

Sorry, i'm not going to add an option for just that. In the future I may make it possible to enable/disable each rule individually, but I have no immediate plans to do so.

One option would be to enable hiding suggestions and switching the mode to "Collapse" so you still have access to everything that is hidden.

Another option is to add h3,span[dir]||Reels and short videos to the advanced option for "Custom CSS selectors." I just realized this option is currently broken though, so it won't work until i release a new version with a fix. image

Yes the "Custom CSS selectors" is broken, hope you can fix it in the next release.

I'll just note that I do have that enabled and I still see the reels and short videos.

I can't tell if it's relevant, but I'll add that I'm using Swedish FB, where it's called "Reels och korta videor".

I'll add that I'm using Swedish

@sandebert I only have the English version of most suggestions, so that is definitely your issue. I will add the translation you provided, and if there are any other Swedish variations, it would help if you would add them to the file data/hide_rules/suggested/texts and submit a PR.
