Click the Facebook button in the upper-left corner. Select "Edit Profile" at the top of the menu on the left. Click the "Edit" button next to each entry in your profile. Click the "Audience" drop-down menu and select "Only Me" to hide that piece of profile information.
Facebook offers several options. You can hide someone's posts or unfollow that person, which means you remain "friends" but no longer see their posts on your News Feed. There's also the option to snooze someone's posts for 30 days. Or block someone so they can't see your posts or communicate with you.
When you add someone to your Restricted list, you'll still be friends with them on Facebook, but they'll only be able to see your public information (example: your posts and profile info you choose to make public) and posts you tag them in.
Look for empty space at the top of their profile.
If you've been restricted, you won't be able to see the private posts, hence the space here. Depending on when your friend made their public posts, you might not see a gap here even if you have been restricted.
They will only see your posts if you've set the audience to “Public” (indicated by the globe icon), if they're tagged in it or if a mutual friend tags both of you in the post. They will not know that they're on your restricted list.
We won't tell them that you restricted them. They won't be able to see when you're online or if you've read their messages. You also won't see when they're online. We'll let you know if you're about to enter a group chat with someone you restricted.
When someone unfriends you or blocks you, you can't see them in your friend list. On the other hand, when someone unfriends you, you can see their profile with an "add friend" option. But, when they block you, you cannot access the page and it will show "Sorry, this content can't be reached right now".
When you take a break, you'll be able to: See less of someone's profile: Limit where you see someone's profile on Facebook. If you choose to see them less, their posts and posts they're tagged in won't appear in your Feed and you won't be prompted to message them or tag them in photos.
When you block someone, you cannot tag them, and neither can they. But both of you can tag each other in the case of the Restricted list. And when you tag the restricted person, they will see the post even if the privacy setting is set to Friends.
Hide post: Hides a single post. Snooze [Name] for 30 days: Temporarily hides all posts from a specific person, Page or group from your Feed. You'll continue to be friends with or follow the person, Page or group. Unfollow [Name]: Hides all posts from a specific person, Page or group from your Feed.
You won't see your conversation with them in your Chats list. We won't tell them that you restricted them. They won't be able to see when you're online or if you've read their messages. You also won't see when they're online.
Restrict, which has not been previously reported on, is more like a one-way mirror. While it's obvious to someone when they've been blocked — because they can no longer find that user on the platform — it won't be obvious when they've been restricted. They will see that user's posts in their feed like they usually do.
When you block someone, stories also become hidden. So you cannot view each other's stories just like posts. On the other hand, the people on the Restricted list cannot see your stories, but you can see their stories.
If he's hiding his friends, he's probably hiding posts and photos and other timeline activity from you. Sounds likes he's got secret associations, liaisons, and activities that's he's carrying on behind your back.
When you block someone's Facebook profile on Messenger, it also blocks their profile on Facebook. They won't be able to message, call or find your Facebook profile. If you're Facebook friends, blocking them also unfriends them. Profiles won't be notified when you block them.
When you limit someone on Messenger, you're putting them on a restricted list, which limits their ability to contact you. They can still send you messages, but they will go straight to your "Message Requests" folder, and you won't receive notifications.
Facebook allows you to set boundaries on who can find you, send you messages, and access your Facebook profile. Adjust these settings to make yourself as open or invisible as you like. On your Facebook home page, select the Account icon (the down arrow) in the upper-right corner. Select Settings & Privacy.
A filled-in blue circle next to your message means that your message was delivered. And, when a friend has read your message, a small version of your friend's photo will appear next to your message. Mary Straub and 20,053 others like this.
To find out if someone has blocked you on Messenger, you should first send them a message. If your message is not delivered, even after the recipient has been online, you're most likely blocked. To tell if your message isn't delivered, it will have an empty circle with a check mark for an icon.
When you add someone to your Restricted list, you'll still be friends with them on Facebook, but they'll only be able to see your public information (example: your posts and profile info you choose to make public) and posts you tag them in.
