I don't really use facebook anymore so couldn't care less; but so happened to log in today to change my password and saw this on my front page.
Anyone got a Facebook Suggested filter that actually works?

I don't care for Facebook one bit... but it's alarming to see ANOTHER platform trying to block adblockers. First YouTube, then APKMirror, and now Facebook. Great... can't wait to enter the adblocker blocking web era. Fucking Google, always making shit worse.

I actually got a notice like this several months ago even before YouTube did theirs.
If anything, Facebook's quite infamous for trying to combat and blockers in general. I remember back then when they obfuscated their web layout so much that it got tricky for some to filter or block sponsored or recommended content.
I love how both Meta and YT will Barbara Streisand Ad Blockers into the spotlight. Most people do not use ad blockers and all these News will make them more aware of it.
Oh no! I'll have to keep on not using Facebook.
Yeah! now it's turn of facebook to grow friendi.ca
Oh wow, big tech single-handedly curing my internet addiction! Love it!
