Facebook ’s get vainglorious on nostalgia these sidereal day , now that it ’s got several age of our lives stored up in its digital bank vault . But if you ’d rather live in the present and make a clean break with the past — or just one person in particular — here ’s how to do it .

Log into Facebook on the World Wide Web , then find the “ On This Day ” debut under the Apps heading on the left hand . To interchange off all notifications from Clarence Shepard Day Jr. of Facebook past times , dawn Notifications and then Off . If you ’re ever hit by a stab of nostalgia you may unfold the app again or just follow thefacebook.com/onthisdayURL ( you ca n’t hit the app completely ) .

If you ’d rather sink in out specific mass or dates that land back high-risk memories , flick Preferences and then practice the Edit links to typeset up your filters ( note that you do n’t needs have to be friends with someone to stop them from appearing in your notifications ) . That ’s all there is to it — those people and date will be hidden in the future .

Of course Facebook come with a mess of other tools for filtering your News Feed . chatter the pointer next to any entry to hide posts like it from your provender or to unfollow the person who posted it . For a more comprehensive way of making sure someone never shows up in your News Feed again , block themby clicking the padlock icon on the toolbar at the top and choosing How do I stop someone from chafe me ? ( the person you block wo n’t be any wiser ) .
