Facebook isn't the only platform set to experience changes, but Messenger too

Perhaps Facebook are taking a leaf out of TikTok's book as the platform shows not only one's personal "Following" content but "For You" content, compiling of suggested videos.

A "For You" page is based on algorithms and for the past few years, Meta data.

Facebook isn't the only platform set to experience changes, but Messenger too.

Messenger might soon resemble the communication platforms Slack or Discord.

This is due to the introduction of Communities, with multiple chatrooms themed by different topics such as student clubs.

You can create these communities without having an existing Facebook group the members are part of.

What's going to happen to Facebook?

Facebook has created new tabs such as the "Local" tab and the "Explore" tab and an inspired "For You" page.

With the "Local" tab, users can find suggested content from Facebook Market Place, local residential groups and events.

If you've heard of Nextdoor before, the app for local communities, users might see some similarities with the new tab.

The tab is currently being tested in 10 US cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Austin, Texas.

With the "Explore" tab users will see content based on their searched interests like travel tips or DIY tutorials.

A bit like Instagram's "Explore" page.

The final change is very similar to TikTok's "For You" page.

Users will find a page dedicated to video's with both short and long ones to watch.

One disappointed Facebook user took to X, formerly known as Twitter and said: "Great. 90% of my feed is already stuff I don't know about/don't follow/ads. If it increases, I might just not use it."

However, it does seem suggested type content is on the up.

Many tech companies have tried to be more like TikTok by introducing short form videos and according to The Verge, Facebook has revealed how its page differs.

It claimed: "Young adults on the platform now spend 60 percent of their time watching videos, and it promises a 'turbo-charged' recommendations algorithm in this new feed."

Essentially, Facebook's "For You" page is "hyper-personalised".
