Google Discover is experimenting with social media.
In what appears to be quite limited testing, some users are seeing carousels of social posts mixed in with the news feed.
So far, content from Instagram and X has been spotted, but other services may also be involved.
Google Discover represents a particularly convenient way to stay up to date on the latest news, just one little swipe away from your phone’s home screen.

So far, that’s basically consisted of stories posted to new sites, as well as some YouTube videos.
