The 'Snooze' feature will discourage people from permanently unfollowing, unliking or unfriending people/groups on Facebook while still giving them control over what they see.

A Facebook spokesperson confirms it’s testing the 'Snooze' feature, telling TechCrunch “We’re testing new ways to give people control over their News Feeds so they can stay connected with the stories they find most relevant.”

Now that you will soon have the absolute power to control what appears on your Facebook timeline, those annoying and unsolicited posts from your school Group and the endless relationship goals by that friend can now be kept out of your sight.
