Facebook lets people tell its Feed and Reels algorithm what they want to see, in their own words

Meta Newsroom· 13 Oct

Meta announced Your algorithm for Facebook. People can add and manage the topics they want to see in Feed and Reels from a post's three-dot menu, and can say in their own words what they like or dislike after tapping Interested or Not interested. Meta says large language models now help its ranking systems read that text, and recommendations adapt within the same session. Meta first launched the feature on Instagram.

  • If your business relies on Facebook, make your page posts clearly about one topic each, so a person who asks for that topic is more likely to be shown them.
  • Watch your page's reach for the next few weeks and compare it with last month, so you can tell if the change helps or hurts you before you change how often you post.
