How to hide newsfeed on Facebook from friends?

How can I hide liked and shared content from the Facebook news feed?

  • I need a way to hide liked and shared content from my friends in the facebook newsfeed because they like and share stuff like "Like/Share in 3 seconds if you remember this" and "Repost this or else you will die". That kind of stuff gives me a headache. I need a way to hide that kind of stuff on the facebook website or at least a chrome & firefox extension that hides liked and shared content

You can actually make likes without your friends seeing them and at the same time avoid missing out updates on your news feed.   1.Make sure you are logged in to your account. 2.Find the “likes” page on your timeline and tap edit. 3.Facebook will not let you select likes that you want to hide one by one but you can hide the entire category. Find one of the categories that you don’t use. Any will do. Change the setting to “only me”. 4.Move your embarrassing likes by adding it to the category you don’t use even if they don’t fit. 5.Make sure you tap the “done editing” icon.   source: http://viralkick.com/blog/hide-likes-facebook/
