With an aim to give its UI a Twitter-like look, Facebook unveiled a new UI design for its social platform at its annual F8 event last year. After several months of beta testing, the social media giant recently announced that the classic facebook layout is being discontinued from this month. So, users who actually loved the old design will be stuck with the new modern yet clumsy design of the platform. Now, what if I told you that you can easily bring back the classic look of Facebook with the help of a Chrome extension?
So, to get back the old design of Facebook, all you have to do is go to the official website for the extension and install it on your Chrome browser.
Now, according to the creator, the way “Old Layout” works is pretty simple. The extension does nothing with the source code of the platform to acquire the old design. Instead, it makes Facebook think that you are using an older version of Chrome on which the new look of the platform does not support.
As a result, users might see an “update your browser” notification pop-up on their screens while using the extension. However, do not worry about that and ignore them right away as your browser does not need an update. It is just making Facebook think that it needs an update.
