TL:DR; Facebook’s algorithm seems to be promoting more short form video and less news. Blogs and news sites are feeling the pinch because Facebook is one of their largest traffic channels.

    Facebook has gotten almost unusable lately. I freelance and get a decent number of jobs alerts through various groups I’m a part of, so I have to use it, but it is completely junk now.

    I can’t use it to keep up with what friends are up to any more, because in between every post from a friend is two ads and three suggestions for you.

    I just want to keep up with friends, find work and keep track of events I’m invited or going to. I can’t do any of that any more without scrolling through pages and pages of shit.
