    Fighting this Facebook algorithm change, because I’m totally noticing I am not seeing so many of my friends’ posts

    Here’s how to avoid hearing from the same 26 FB friends and nobody else. This post explains why we don't see all posts from our friends. Funny, thought if I followed you on Facebook I would see what you post. Not anymore

    Your Newsfeed recently shows only posts from the same few people, about 25, repeatedly the same, because Facebook has a new algorithm. *♀️

    Their system chooses the people who will read your post. However, I would like to choose for myself, Therefore, I ask you all a favor - If you are reading this message leave me a quick comment, a "hello", a sticker, whatever you want, so you will appear in my news feed

    Otherwise Facebook chooses who to show me and I don't need facebook to choose my friends!

    Do not hesitate to copy and paste on your wall so you can have more interaction with all your contacts and bypass the system. That's why we don't see all posts from our friends.

    Thanks for the heads up from those who already copied and pasted the above. Hold your finger down anywhere in this post and "copy" will pop up. Click "copy". Then go your page, start a new post on your page, then put your finger anywhere in the blank field. "Paste" will pop up and click paste. Waaa laa, you've just copied and pasted!!I

    Waaa laa? I presume she meant to use the French term, 'Voilà'.

    But isn't Waaa laa somehow more exciting?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,862 ✭✭✭✭inforfun


    Waaa laaa

    Waa....
    It does add an extra layer of "moan" to it.

    Facebook is a gold mine for psychology students I'd say.

    Christ, we all knew there were stupid people in the world, but this is shocking!

    There's an Austrian psychologist on my friends list and he posts some very weird, gloomy stuff. He could be the weirdest of them all, but it's not funny, just vaguely depressing.

    Boys Are Like Parking Spaces The Good Ones Are Taking And The Rest Are Handycaps


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,021 ✭✭✭kg703


    Just arrived on my Facebook feed this morning:

    There are boys and girls to which no one invites to the birthday party, for example, kids with special needs who are desperate to belong to a team, but they don't receive an invite because they don't fit in with "normal" children. Children with special needs are not rare or strangers. They only want what everyone else wants, to be part of that team, to be accepted!!
    Can I make a request? Is there anyone willing to copy and paste this in honor of all children who deserve a chance!

    And..........deleted

    :D:D I read the "Shared in Donegal" part first, and as I was reading I was wondering Where the hell Wahroonga was in Donegal :D

    Also was thinking it was a bad misspelling of some area there - amazing how much one can think in the split second of reading 4 words...

    But thats another thread :)

    Should be easy enough to spot. Sure there can't be many cats between Wahroong and Milford. If you do happen to spot a black and white cat with a sort of forlorn, lost expression on him, then I'd say that's the one....

    PL: so you want to kill babies.

    Me: wasted 10mins of my life explaining that a fetus under 22 weeks can't survive so they aren't babies and I support repeal and access up to 12 weeks.
    PL: your a turnip you haven't a clue a baby is a baby at 1 week and you want to kill it.

    Me: in any case we should let the person involved decide ie the mother.
    PL: so your saying everyone should kill there babies.

    Me: look I have to go to work.
    PL: you see letting the mother decide is a tactic to allow people kill babies.

    So my friend recently added me to a group on Facebook cause as she put it 'wait until you read some of these posts'

    She wasn't wrong - I could now fill this entire thread with the most ridiculous posts. So one started discussing paranormal activity and this was a comment under it:

    My uncles house was haunted, their back garden was the burial ground for.shoulders killed by the black and tans. A solder used to pass the back windwnr everyday when the clock struck 12. A headless priest used to appear in one of the bedrooms, you could be downstairs and hear the place being trashed upstairs and when you go up the place was perfect but really cold.

    Some more:

    i believe in all this stuff after what happened to me (involving a Mary statue taken from a graveyard 😨). when it comes to ghosts you are the boss, no fear (no anger either) you square up and tell them to get out of your house, say a prayer (saint Michael's pray is good). demons now, they are a different matter, you need some jesus and a priest for them

    My house is full of activity X, mostly in d kitchen one day I put my phone on d counter had my back to it and standing in the doorway talking to my friend and the phone came up of d counter and hit me but it didn’t just slip or fall of d counter it hit me with force as if it was throwing we freaked another day was washing up and nail polish hit me from my microwave which is no wear near my sink if it fell would have dropped beside it or onto my cooker this went past d cooker past my counter and hit me I’ve asked the priest to bless the house I’m on a list loadsa houses around here are the same because they are so old
