Facebook begins to roll out changes to fine-tune what posts we hide.
And hopefully they’re paying attention to our preferences!
Remembrance Day: Like any holiday or major event, the overall activity on social media sky-rocketed.
As someone who quite frequently hides people, pages apps and more from my Facebook feed, I was delighted to see that Facebook is giving us the ability to tell them why we don’t like seeing content.

I’d say at this point, I’d say about half of my Facebook newsfeed is relevant blogs, articles and the like — while the other half consists of a small portion of my friends list’s posts.
I’m sure we have all seen this dialogue at some point:

The difference now is that after clicking “It’s annoying or not interesting”…we get a new list of options.

While the list is brief, it covers three of the most common gripes with content on Facebook. Try-hards beware; being genuine is going to be increasingly important on social media.
On top of the new feedback we can offer Facebook, there’s also a new survey akin to the removed feature of choosing how much content we see from a particular entity.

Hopefully the results of these surveys we fill out actually optimize our newsfeeds. At this point, it’s hard to say. The new features aren't completely available to the public yet.
What I can say for sure is that this is valuable data that I hope Page managers will be able to access.
I’d like to hear your thoughts and opinions! I’m always open to discussion — either in the notes section here or catch me on Twitter.
