FACEBOOK is making a massive change that has been requested by its billions of users for years.
The social network will finally allow you to see only posts from friends and groups you care about under a brand new Feeds tab.

It comes as more people complain about the main News Feed being swamped with stuff they’re not interested in.
Tech billionaire boss Mark Zuckerberg, 38, said the huge move is designed to make it easier for you to control what content you see and discover on Facebook.
Under the new Feeds tab, you can see the most recent posts from friends, pages and groups.
You can choose to see all three, or scroll along to filter them down to each category.
The update even allows you to create a favourites list, so you can decide to only see the select few you actually want to hear about.
But ads will still be visible.
Meanwhile, the main page is being renamed Home.

Here you’ll still see personalised recommendations, along with videos from Reels and Stories.
And the social network says the changes will start to appear from today on iOS and Android.
“We understand you may want more options when it comes to sorting and seeing your content,” Facebook explained.
“There are times you might know just what you’re looking for — say, the latest posts from your groups — or you may want to encounter fresh, entertaining content.
“As Home becomes more of a discovery engine for you to find and follow new content and creators through recommendations, the Feeds tab provides an easy way to access the content from the people and communities you’re already connected with on Facebook.”
