I never really liked the feed though it was alright before the algorithms. I used to get 30-50 likes on a post, and after I posted 2-3 links related to Julian Assange, my likes changed to 2-5 per post. I don’t think the people in my feed hated Assange. I think I lost the algorithms favor because of those links, perhaps because they have such content on a grey-list or perhaps because my friends don’t post similar content and they saw it as inconsistent.
I will continue using messenger to contact old friends but I’ll only be using the Facebook app to promote hive in groups now
