Recently, Facebook has just adjusted the News Feed feature. It will return to the core value “Family and friends go first”. So, let’s see what it means!

Family and friends come first

Your family and close friends will be the priority. Their posts, their images, and their activities will be on the top of your News Feed. Facebook will work based on your habits (the time you hit “like” on someone’s photos, the time you comment on the links). And then, it will push those things on top of your New Feeds. The decision of coming back to the core value could be not good for the media industry.

Facebook want your New Feeds to be useful for you. This means that New Feeds will give you information. It could be a story, an event,  a recipe or news about celebrities, etc. Not only providing information, this Feeds also entertain you with a fun video or hilarious pictures. With this new feature, New Feeds will become a familiar and interesting part of Facebook. And you will be more excited to use this social network.

The representative of the company said that it won’t decided the posts you will read. It wants to connect you with the ideas and stories which are thought to be meaningful. Facebook will eliminate the fake news, the spam articles or stories which can make you misunderstand. Instead of that, it’ll show you the positive posts.

You’ll decide your own experience on Facebook

You’re the owner of Facebook and you will be the controller. You can unfollow the posts that you don’t want to see, unfriend someone you don’t like. Facebook will allow you to choose which posts you want to see first (See first feature). If you hide someone’s posts, which make Facebook understand that you don’t want to see that person’s information much. Then, New Feeds will adjust to match your taste. Until now, this “News Feed” feature has just been 1% completed.
