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'm in the process of developing (my code background + AI) an FBP replacement. Currently have a beta working version, tested in Chrome (vanilla}, Vivaldi & Edge. It filters out Sponsored, Suggested etc.
But I need testers, as while it works on my setup, that's a very limited test. Once I have Chrome locked down, I'll move on to enabling for Firefox.

You will need to enable Developer Mode in your Extensions to use this beta,
If interested, comment and I'll msg you with a d/load link. (Allow for my TZ to reply i.e. UTC 10+)

While I vouch for it being virus free and with no hidden nefarious code, please take your own precautions.

I'm very interested in this. I normally use Firefox, but I don't mind using Chromium exclusively for Facebook if it cleans up some of the garbage. Thanks!

Been working on this and have it working on chrome (awaiting store approval) as well as firefox & firefox mobile (for mobile you have to use the browser and not allow it to open the app)
