Removing unwanted Feed items

I have a custom object Requests__c and each time the request status changes, i have a process builder that creates a custom related object called Request_Activity__c. The purpose of which is to capture the activity on the request (and generate reports, metrics, etc).

Whenever the Request Activity is created, a Feed item is created on the Request. I do not want a feed item for Request Activities, however I cannot turn off related feed tracking because i need it for notes and other related items.

To solve this, I created a Flow, that deletes the Request Activity Feed Item record, by selecting the Feed Item by the parent Id (Request Activity). Unfortunately it only runs for me. I cannot get it to run for other users. I get the error "FeedItem requires a filter by Id." How can I resolve this?

None of those worked for me. Two of them suggest using the "__Feed" Object, so for example Request__Feed, but when I do so I get no results. I only get results when querying FeedItem. The "__Feed" Object is a view from FeedItem, but it only shows items directly related to the Request Object and what I'm looking to remove is a related object feed entry (a CreateRecordEvent type).  What I would need is a Request_Activity__Feed object, but one does not exist.
