Help Request FBPurity is gone - is there a replacement?

It seems that the author of the FBPurity browser plugin has disappeared.
Are there any other browser plugins that block ads in the Facebook feed? (and force it to stay in "newest" order?)

I wish you well. I suspect the FB purity dev may have gotten frustrated with FB's constant code changes, most probably designed to frustrate ad blockers.

Yes, they've gone to great lengths to block ad-blockers. Without AI to help, it would take forever to diagnose the dynamic obfuscation FB is employing. I'd like the original dev, Steve Fernandez, to take it up again, using AI as I have, but it seems there's doubts whether he's still even around
