Facebook has announced that it’s embarking on a journey to reduce the amount of politics-related content users see in their News Feed. Tests will begin in select countries this week.
Facebook is responding to feedback from users complaining about the amount of political content they see on the social network. The company has announced that it’s about to begin tests on how to reduce the political content that shows up on the News Feed, which is the main page you see when opening Facebook. Starting this week, a small subset of users in Brazil, Canada, and Indonesia will start seeing less political content on their feeds, and over the next few weeks, that will expand to the United States.
