Question on newsfeed and what friends see...?

[Becki]

Ok, I'll try to explain this best I can. I never see when a friend adds a new friend or when a friend likes something in my feed. But its seems ALL my friends can see when I add a friend or like something, as they reference this to me. I don't get it. I mainly use Facebook on PC and never see "X became friends with XX" in my feed, yet I will get a txt saying "I can't believe you are now friends with XXX". Does this stuff show up more on Facebook Mobile?

I only see when they update their status or check-in, I just NEVER see when they add someone new or LIKE a picture, but like I said, its seems THEY always know when I do and I can't figure out why this is....
example. I go to a friends page and under recent activity, I saw he added 3 ppl 2 days ago, but I was not notified of this at all in my feed, yet friends say it notifies them in their feed when I add someone new.......

Things like that is depends on each person's algorithm, I myself only often see that in my ticker, not directly in my News Feed. If your News Feed has many updates, that kind you're talking about will show less compared to people who don't have that much updates in their News Feed.
To get more updates of a friend's activity, you should put th!t friend into your Close Friends list.
Aside than that, if someone's set his Friends list to Only Me, except the mutual friends, nobody else will see that "X now friends with XX".
