The Kitchen Table

A FB question, can you still access the "snooze for 30 days" feature?

last year

If you happen to still use facebook, have you not been able to access the "snooze for 30 days" feature since about a week ago? I asked on FB and many of my friends replied that they also do not have this choice in the ... drop-down for each post. I use this a lot because a couple of groups that I am a member of post very often and it monopolizes my newsfeed. I don't want to discontinue being a member because I find the group interesting. There was always the option to snooze the group or person for 30 days which was very helpful. Has anyone found a workaround for this issue? I have tried to "unfollow" those groups but that did not stop the unwanted newsfeed posts. Strange...

I'm finding the exact same thing, Ark Girl. I've got a couple of groups that are totally flooding my feed. Unfollow doesn't even work. They still show up.

I can snooze individuals, but not groups or businesses.

I noticed that the snooze for 30 days option was gone yesterday and not listed today.

Great question - we evaluated the same thing at a meeting with our landscape architect, designer, and architect. All three agreed that in their experience, people rarely use them - but I thought that the rationale mentioned by some of the posts above were good. We ultimately decided against putting in a door leading to the outside in our master, both for security reasons and because we did not want dogs or kids going from pool, to back yard, to master bedroom. We are not coffee drinkers, so we will not have a coffee maker in the room; our dog sleeps in a crate, so he is not in the bedroom. The one thing that we thought about very carefully was fire safety; we wondered whether it would be good to have a door in case of fire. But, thinking it through, if there were a fire we would be focused on getting the kids out, and would probably not be thinking about getting ourselves out of the master bedroom outside door.

Cell Phone Feature Question

on the att site if you put in your info for your account and select the upgrade my phones option you get to see all the phones you could choose and read about them and see the prices, on each phone there is a little box you can check that says compare pick several and do the compare and then you can see the differences. the ones they offer that do not require a data plan that you may be interested in are Samsung Eternity Pantech Impact LG VU plus Sharp FX Samsung Solstice 2 on each one your can see how it is rated and also read the user reviews. You do not have to use all the features that are on a phone just the ones you want. and if you will not be using internet just do not get a data package, some of them do say that you must buy the data package with that phone so stay away from those. All of them will have texting available and you can add an unlimited texting feature if you use that alot. if you will use the camera look for the one with the highest pixel rating, look at the battery life on each one, some have a real keyboard that slides out some are on the screen, pick the ones that have the features you like best. you can do that comparison with out actually going through with the upgrades I look at them often then just close out the page. I still like the bravo best for our next one.

I've often heard you should NOT respond to any of the sayings, cartoons, questions or other mass-generated things on Facebook. I never respond to anything like that. I do reply to posts and LIKE things someone has posted, but none of the other stuff. I also never LIKE a business or anything that has an icon saying LIKE US ON FACEBOOK. You lose a lot of your privacy by doing that. Not saying that you don't lose SOME anyway...

What feature do YOU really like about your house, apartment or condo?

Whether one has a house worth 100 and no other assets or liabilities, or a house worth 100, a mortgage of 50, and another asset of 50 which can appreciate in addition, the house is entirely owned by its owner all the same. The negative of having no loan on real estate is that it prevents the diversification and additional amounts of investments that would be possible if the money that was otherwise used to repay the loan were invested separately in other investments. Borrowing money for real estate has nothing at all to do with living beyond one's means if the payments can be afforded. Those who are the most sophisticated with financial matters, that being large business and companies actually in the finance industry, borrow money. Those least knowledgeable, mostly individuals with no finance experience or knowledge, think of paying off a mortgage as a desirable goal. Take that truthful observation and reach your own conclusions.

I can't even snooze individuals either. BTW, I'm using the PC with Windows 10 and Firefox. I did try to see if it was available using the phone app but it was the same, MISSING!

Same problem. I used it a couple of weeks ago and then couldn't find it this week.

I did kind of find a work-around for this issue. OK so if you can go to FB on your phone, it seems to behave differently. You can click the three dots "..." that is in the upper right hand corner of a post of the group or person you were trying to snooze, now click the hide option that is a little x next to the word "hide", at that point options for different snoozing will pop up and you can snooze there. Then when you go to FB on your computer, it will still be snoozed for 30 days.

All this being said, I am using an Android phone with Android 11 and browsing FB with firefox.

Hope this helps someone! It is so nice not to have a zillion posts popping up in my newsfeed from my old hometown's FB page!

Just to let you all know, it appears that the feature is finally back. I hope it stays this time!
