I spent some time sorting my friends into lists some months ago, and I have some folk who are in 2 lists . How does the privacy settings affect these guys ... Does it set the most or the least restrictive setting??? I like the flexibility, but I'd does very quickly become confusing. I like the new settings but I am a little confused too.

Why would they remove this option? I read their explanation, but come on...surely it's possible somehow. If they really wanted to allow an option to hide the mini-feed in limited profile, they could - it was one of the most important aspects of the limited profile...

It takes a little bit of thought but allows you so much greater control over your fb experience now. It also integrates very well with the new friends lists (really like the way you can create different lists and invite them to events or share content with them so easily). Very good move Facebook, well done! I think they’re excellent! It takes a little bit of thought but allows you so much greater control over your fb experience now.

I think the Limited Profile feature from before was sufficient; either people saw what you had available, or you hid it. Providing all of these new options just makes it more difficult to navigate.

Under the old system, when someone from my regional network searched for my name they could still click on my profile and see some of my information, including the applications. Now when someone from my regional network searches for me they can't click on my profile at all. Also, I have my status update set to all my networks and friends, but since people in my regional network can't click on my profile anymore, I'm not sure how they would see it.
