In addition, we can use it to share the YouTube channel on a Facebook page , in case we want to advertise it.

We have options to improve the privacy of the pages we are following. In this way, you can hide the groups you follow so that your friends do not know what you are following on Facebook. We will be teaching you how to do it in an easy way from your computer or mobile

What steps should you take to hide your Facebook groups?
During the years that Facebook has been in existence, the social network platform has had improvements both in its visual interface and in its privacy. So much so that it has come to have very strict policies for users who misuse the application. In addition to this, we also have the option to Share a post in a group from your own page , thanks to these improvements in its platform.
But through these updates, we can have privacy to the point of having the groups that we follow on the platform hidden . For this, we will have to follow a series of steps to do this, since doing it from a mobile device and a computer is not the same and they are different configurations
From the Facebook app on your Android
If what you want to do is have greater privacy by blocking access so that your groups are hidden and that nobody is seeing it, you can do it from your mobile- For this, you will have to enter your Facebook from your mobile application and go to Groups section and click on configuration to modify its visibility, in the Visible or Hidden option, then you will save so that the changes are made.
Using your iPhone device
If you own an iPhone and want to go through the process of hiding the groups you belong to from your Facebook friends. You can do the same process that was explained in the previous point, since the application interface is the same in both, and it does not change even if you go to deactivate the memories notifications on your Facebook , the process remains the same.
With your computer’s web browser
A very simple way to do so that your friends on Facebook are spying on both your Facebook Profile and are seeing the groups to which you are joined. First log in to the platform and go to your profile. After being in your profile, under your photo, you will see several options and one of them is ‘More’ to continue viewing, there will be Groups, click to enter.
After being inside the Groups option, you will see all the groups in which you are involved and you are following, there you will be directed to the Edit part and it is in this option where there will be a function called ‘ Hide the selection’ , you will give click and automatically the groups will be hidden, in this way, you will only be able to access them from the bar on the left at the beginning of the Facebook page.
How to join a Facebook group without your friends knowing?
Currently on Facebook, there is a mysterious case that some people see in their notifications what you are sharing and what you do on the social network, and through this many people have been very dissatisfied. But thanks to the configurations that the platform offers us, we can make this stop happening so that said person stops receiving notifications of our movements.
Entering the Facebook settings we can make it so that when joining a group, a notification is not reaching a third person indicating that we are joining a page. To do this you just have to change the privacy of your notifications to private so that this stops happening
- Enter the Facebook options section and go to the privacy options
- There you will have everything that is saying ‘ I post’ in ‘Only me’
- This way you will not be informing your friends of what you are doing. Also then select a select group that can only see this
How to see what groups your friends have created on Facebook?
In the same way that we can see the groups that a person is following on Facebook, we can also see what groups that person manages or has created . To see this, you only have to enter their profile and enter the Groups section and you will be seeing the groups they are following, and the groups that person has created from their Facebook account.
