Extension Usage Instructions

                        This extension will attempt to keep your Facebook news feed sorted by the most recent stories.  You can set this preference in Facebook, but it does not persist this setting for very long, and you may find that you're suddenly viewing the top stories again (potentially missing recent stories). This extension searches for the presence of a link on the page that indicates whether your news feed is sorted or not, and if not will redirect to the URL that sets the sorting to most recent.

Note, this extension is in no way affiliated or associated with Facebook.

The source code for this extension is free and available at:
