Overview
- Meta launched the Your Algorithm feature on Facebook on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, extending tools first tested on Reels and added to Instagram earlier this year.
- Users can add and manage topics, mark posts as “interested” or “not interested,” and access the controls from a post’s three-dot menu or buttons under posts.
- Meta says the system may ask follow-up questions so people can explain preferences in their own words and see recommendations change in real time within the same session.
- The company says large language models are now part of its ranking systems so the platform can interpret intent and context from natural-language inputs rather than relying only on past engagement signals.
- Meta frames this rollout as giving people more control over content discovery, a shift that could change what users see and how recommendations are tuned while raising questions about adoption and how LLMs interpret user language.
