Facebook allows its users to like other users' posts, as well as general event pages and topics of interest. Unfortunately, Facebook doesn't allow you to hide likes on other users' posts. However, you can delete the activity from the history/activity log page. You can also hide segments or lists of public profile pages and preferred interests.

Method 4 of 4: Hiding the “Likes” or “Likes” Segment on the Facebook Desktop Site
Step 1. Go to the Facebook website
For now, this procedure can only be done via the Facebook desktop site. You can't do this through the Facebook app or mobile site.
Step 2. Sign in to the account
Step 3. Click your profile name
The name is displayed at the top of the screen.
Step 4. Hover over the More option
Step 5. Click Manage Sections
Step 6. Scroll to the “Likes” option
Step 7. Click the checkbox next to “Likes”
Step 8. Click Save ("Save")
Now, the “Likes” or “Likes” segment has been hidden from the profile so that no friends or other users can click on it and access it.
Warning
- By hiding uploads from your timeline, you can also remove them from the main timeline in your dashboard. The shows you like won't appear on your profile page unless you share them.
- Again, you can't hide likes on posts. When viewing the activity “likes” in the activity log, you can see the default privacy settings for each upload that you like. You can't change these settings, and only the creator of the upload or community post can set it.
