Overview

• Facebook is testing new 'Local' and 'Explore' tabs to provide users with personalized content and event recommendations.
• The 'Local' tab aggregates content from Marketplace, local groups, and events, aiming to mimic platforms like Nextdoor.
• A new video feed, similar to TikTok's For You page, will feature short, long, and live videos, reflecting young adults' preference for video content.
• Messenger Communities, akin to Slack or Discord, will allow users to create topic-based chatrooms without needing a Facebook group.
• Meta's strategy focuses on expanding users' networks beyond friends and family, aligning with younger generations' social media habits.
