In addition, the social network announced that this section was available in five countries, but that it had not been as successful as expected. According to Facebook’s own research, this tool was becoming less and less useful for users. That is why they finally make the decision to eliminate it. A deletion that will take place next week.
While the social network says that this does not mean that they will stop focusing on the news. They affirm that news will continue to play a decisive role in the functioning of the web. But they are exploring new ways of being able to display the news and thus filter out false content.
At the moment it is not known when these new tools will arrive on Facebook. It could take a few months, but the company hasn’t said anything so far. So we’ll have to wait and see what they replace the trends section with.
