"(...) the balance of what's in the News Feed ran away from what Facebook does most important - help us connect with each other."</p> <p>Facebook uses rules to decide what to show for its users. Interaction with friends and what these friends like or share shape the page of each social network user</p> <p>Adam Massari, head of News Feed, explains that among these "signs" are information such as "how many people responded, commented or shared posts". From now on, however, the potential for generating social conversations and interactions will be taken into account.</p> <p><strong>But how exactly will your Facebook change?</strong></p> <p>The most enlightening passage of Zuckerberg's text may be the following: "The first changes you'll see will be in the News Feed, where you can expect to see more things from friends, family, and groups."</p> <p>The initial proposal (it is not yet possible to prove, since the changes were announced today) is that the Facebook user sees fewer publications made by brand pages, press vehicles, or commercial establishments.</p> <p>Contents of these pages will be prioritized in cases that encourage social interaction. Zuckerberg cites as examples of contents that generate interest and social debate: television series, teams of sports modalities, among others. He suggests, therefore, that pages of these types should still appear constantly in the News Feed.</p> <p>Expect, therefore, an increase in the number of publications made by your friends and family rather than a large number of brand or page posts</p> <p>Another mode that should appear a lot, Zuckerberg suggests, is live videos streamed on Facebook. This type of content usually brings interaction among network users, exceeding six times the interaction compared to non-live videos.</p> <p><strong>Passivity</strong></p> <p>The changes come after a large study that was encouraged by Facebook. This study, that is, is quoted by Zuckerberg in his text.</p> <p>Released last year, the material stated that Facebook, while having a positive effect on its users, can also have more devastating consequences. By slipping through the News Feed and not interacting with anything, the user says the study may feel bad.</p> <p>But what kind of content encourages a more passive posture of Facebook users? It's exactly activities like watching videos, reading news or seeing page updates, writes Mark Zuckerberg.</p> <p>"We feel a responsibility to ensure that our service is not only fun to use, but also good for people's well-being," he writes.</p> <p>Between the announcement and its explanations, Mark Zuckerberg gave almost startling information. The CEO said he expected the time spent on the social network to fall. Engagement indicators may also show worse numbers. The explanation comes as a precautionary measure for investors.</p> </html>
