Woah! Meta is working hard to disrupt what we know…some for the better, some maybe for the worse.
Over the past week, Instagram released two new features, maps and repost. You can turn off your location for maps (which I would personally suggest to do - Settings tab, “Stories, live and location”). This is intended to find nearby friends and feels very 2012 Snapchat.
But repost! Wow. Have we wanted that for ages. Now you can share a post from another profile to YOUR feed! Knowing Instagram, this repost stat will probably become a pretty important one, so keep in mind when creating your content, shareable content is I stage and favorite kind of content.
And lastly…not everyone is seeing this yet, but Facebook says it is shutting down community chats. This is another good reminder than social media is rented space. If you have a community chat, you may want to explore other options like WhatsApp or Discord. Will you just drop this feature in your groups?
Share this post to let your followers know of these important changes on Facebook and Instagram. 💖🐑
