    A few days ago I stopped receiving posts to my Home page from friends and family for no reason that I can tell. I’ve tried logging out/in, system restore, clearing history, cookies ,etc.
    Changed password. Still only get a post from a couple different sites. Nothing from the likes of
    BrianK, Dean Marshall, RRR and a lot more. Can somebody tell what to do ?
    Thanks, WKW

    You needs to go into each of your friends FB pages and like or follow them. If you are a user who basically reads posts and never like them or reply to them, those people eventually go away. (New algorithm FB put in recently.)

    On the flip side, if you are now seeing post from people you have no clue who they are or why they are showing up in your feed, go up to the right hand corner of the post (Where you see the ” . . .” and select not to see them. (For example, if you are seeing political post from a party you would never vote for, you can make those go away forever.)

    What I see some people doing is creating a new post and asking all of their friend to “Like or Reply” to it. Then those people start showing up in your feed again.

    That might work for others, but not for me. I am having a different issue.

    On Facebook you are able to be friends with someone without following them. If you don’t follow someone you won’t see their posts in your news feed. Check to make sure you’re following the folks you think you should be seeing posts from. Are you using Facebook App (smartphone) or their website (computer)? Below is a visual of using Facebook’s website, illustrating that I’m friends with and following BK. But the image in the lower section shows someone with whom I am friends but that I do not follow (too much political BS).

    One handy feature with using Facebook’s website is that you can click on your friends list and view “New Posts”. This will show you a list of your friends who have posted recently. If you’ve been missing anyone’s post that you are indeed following, you should interact with their posts on occasion as mentioned above by either reacting to it (like, love, laugh, etc.) or comment on it so that the person’s posts show up more often in your news feed.
