For anyone using Facebook as a messaging/group/event service, I cannot recommend the Facebook News Feed Eridactor more. It literally just blocks it all. Not perfect for all users, but it has really helped me spend less time wasting away scrolling out of habit.

PS: The daily quote feature can be toggled off.

You can just unfollow your entire friends list except for the few people you actually want to see content from and your feed is basically not changing at all except for those VERY few updates from your select friends.

And don't forget to use Messenger Lite.

Can't you just block Facebook in your hosts file?

Yes — but the parent comment says this is for those who use it for the messenger/group/event features.
