What are the privacy options for Facebook posts

On social media, it’s common to share what you like with your friends. On Facebook, people can share other users’ posts on their timelines. However, it all depends on the privacy settings that the author has set for his message. 

Facebook offers its users different privacy options. Every time you post something, you might have seen the “Edit Audience” option. This is the default option that allows you to control who can see your Facebook posts and who can’t.

The following post privacy options are currently available on the Facebook platform:

• Public.
  • Public posts are available to anyone on the Web.
  • It doesn’t matter if the person has a Facebook account or not.
• Friends.
  • Only people who are on your friends list will be able to see your publications.
• Friends Except.
  • This option allows you to select the friends you want to exclude from the audience list.
• Specific Friends.
  • Only those of your selected friends will be able to view and participate in the post.
• Only Me.
  • No one but you can see your post.
• Custom.
  • This option is a mix of the “Friends Except” option and the “Specific Friends” option.
  • The author of a post can include and exclude friends from his or her list of friends.

How does Facebook’s algorithm work now

The essence of Facebook’s algorithm is that it controls the formation of the news feed so that it most closely matches user requests. Instead of displaying content in chronological order, news feeds and ads are published based on what Facebook deems relevant to you as a user.

Facebook’s fight against “fake news” and misleading content has widespread media coverage. It probably does not affect brands directly, but it clearly emphasizes the importance of trust and transparency on the platform. Since any content that was perceived as overly controversial or spammy could quickly fall under penalties.
