Before long, Facebook says you will see more notices from loved ones that start significant social trades — guardians examining what sleep time stories to peruse to kids, a companion looking for guidance on spots to movement or a newsy article or video on a point you think about. What Facebook needs you to invest less energy doing: latently looking through updates on your course of events, perusing articles and watching recordings, however not connecting with others.

Facebook says these pages may see another decrease in rush hour gridlock being alluded and recordings being viewed, however the effect will shift contingent upon the kind of substance they deliver and how individuals collaborate with it.

This isn’t the first time Facebook would be  tweaking its news feed algorithm to favour friends’ interactions. There was a similar announcement back in 2015 and then in 2016, The social media giant explained it more explicit in what appeared to mean that Pages would be less favoured in the news feed over time.
