Topics and filters
Lean into or away from subjects, set a comfort level for what is shown, and bound the feed by language, country and network.
These sit behind Advanced in Settings, then Feed, in three tabs: Topics, Content Filter, and Filters.
Topics
Eight broad topic sliders, each running from less to more, and each expanding into its own sub-topics for finer control. The eight are Technology, Science, Politics, Entertainment, Sports, Lifestyle, Business and News.
A topic slider is a preference, not a filter. To remove a subject outright, mute it instead. See Muting and filtering.
Content Filter
Appropriateness has three levels:
- Standard
- The default balance.
- Modest
- Hides suggestive or revealing media.
- Strict
- Only clearly clean, unflagged content.
Alongside them are four switches: hide vulgar language, hide sensitive content flagged with a content warning, hide upsetting posts, and text only, which drops images and video entirely.
Filters
- Language
- One language, or all of them.
- Country
- Restrict to specific countries, or leave it open.
- Who you see
- Everyone, only people you follow, or only your closest connections.
- Shorts in feed
- How much vertical video is mixed into the main feed.
