Feedbreak vs News Feed Eradicator
News Feed Eradicator is a simple, open-source way to remove a feed. Feedbreak goes further, with more of each page hidden and more control. Here is the honest picture.
Side by side

|---|---|---|
| What it hides | Feeds, Shorts, Reels, Stories, recommendations and sidebars | The feed on several networks |

| Price | Free for every hide. Pro from $3.99/mo, $29/yr or $49 once | Free |
| Source | Not open source today | Open source (MIT) |
| Track record | New. Store listings are not live yet | Around 200K Chrome users and a 4.7 rating (October 2026) |
| What you see instead | A calm page, a why-hidden label and a search box | A replacement quote |
| Control | Peek, Show once, Always show, per-hide switches | On or off per site |
User counts and ratings are as listed on store pages in October 2026 and change weekly. We try to be fair; tell us if we got something wrong.
Where News Feed Eradicator is strong
It is simple, free and open source. You can read the code, and it does what it says.
Where Feedbreak is different
Feedbreak hides more than the feed: Shorts, Reels, Stories, recommendations and suggestions. It tells you what it hid and why, and lets you peek, show once or always show a creator you like. Rules update on their own when a site changes.
The tradeoff is that Feedbreak is not open source today, and it is new. Join the early-access list above and we will email you once at launch.
