StB is described as '(stop-the-bullshit) is a Chrome browser extension that blocks websites that publish fake news, and hides their posts on Facebook' and is an app. There are three alternatives to StB for a variety of platforms, including Mac, Windows, Linux, Google Chrome and Safari apps. The best StB alternative is B.S. Detector, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like StB are Fake Out and FiB.
B.S. Detector is a browser extension that warns users about unreliable news sources. It basically searches all links on a given webpage for references to unreliable sources, checking against a manually compiled list of domains.
The FiB Chrome extension analyzes your Facebook feed for a url, picture, and text's validity. It was built by four students as part of Princeton University's hackathon, with the challenge to solve Facebook's problem with fake news.
