#facebook news feed policy

Facebook is implementing a new system that changes the behaviour of users News Feeds. This new update came to light due to community feedback that public contents are crowding their News Feeds and are flooding out posts from friends and family. Due to this new system and the limited space in News Feeds, users will now see a reduced number of public content, including videos and other posts from publishers and businesses. If users still wish to see posts from Pages they follow though, then they are advised to toggle the "See First" option in the News Feed preferences settings, this way posts from those Pages will always appear in their news feed. Content with high exchange between the producer and their audience, say for example a Q&A live video or news on important issues, will get bumped up the News Feed more. Although, Facebook is still issuing a warning that "engagement-bait" posts are not meaningful posts and that they will continue to demote such content in News Feeds. Although it may seem like it, Facebook is stating that they are not eliminating Page contents from News Feeds but there will surely be fewer page posts once the new system gets implemented.
