As anticipated, Reels is by far the biggest change<\/a> coming to your Facebook Groups. For those of you not consumed by the social media-saturated culture within which we currently find ourselves, Reels are a form of short video format <\/strong>intended to give TikTok a little bit of a run for its People\u2019s Republic of China-scented money. Reels are recorded vertically, much like selfies. Reels aren\u2019t new to the Facebook ecosystem on the whole, but users will now be able to view and share them within groups.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Facebook\u2019s upper echelons are understandably excited about the addition of Reels. \u2018Reels in Groups let you express your voice in your communities <\/strong>through creative and immersive videos. [\u2026] Imagine people in a makeup-obsessed group sharing their latest techniques and beauty finds with fellow members. Group admins and members can also add creative elements such as audio, text overlay and filters on top of their videos before sharing to bring their stories to life.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users will even be able to add visual effects, such as filters, to their reels, ensuring that the practice of only ever portraying the facade <\/strong>of a perfect life, flawless skin, and uncompromised mental health on social media remains untarnished and unaffected.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reels aren\u2019t the only new feature coming to Facebook Groups, though. Moderators will also now have an easier time regulating and verifying posts marked as fake news by \u2018third-party fact-checkers\u2019 with a new function called Admin Assist<\/strong>. There\u2019s also a new points system to reward individuals actively participating in their community. In other words, you\u2019ll be rewarded if you download Facebook, post to Facebook, and react and respond to posts on Facebook. That\u2019s what \u2018your community\u2019 translates to in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other news, Facebook may be watching your every move to build an addictive matrix of your likes and dislikes so that you never see content that you won\u2019t interact with, but fake Facebook apps are even worse. Meta has issued a warning that fake Facebook apps are stealing users\u2019 passwords<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
