San Francisco, Jan 12 : Facebook will change the way it does business to emphasise “meaningful social interactions” rather than the type of News Feed scrolling that critics say is addictive, chief executive Mark Zuckerberg says.
Users should see the change across the next few months.
“The first changes you’ll see will be in News Feed, where you can expect to see more from your friends, family and groups,” he said.
Zuckerberg said in a post on Facebook that the changes would be “major” and lead to a short-term drop in the time spent on the network, but that it would be better for users and for the business over the long term.
The social media platform boss said his company felt a responsibility to ensure that their users not only enjoyed the product, but were not being negatively impacted by it.
