"Publishers around the world hit by Facebook labelling news as spam"

Glad I deleted our FB Page. FB is trash, pure and simply trash.

Luckily I don't seem to be hit by that.

It's not a problem. Ditch Facebook.

I never had a Facebook in the first place. I hated Meta before it was cool because of their data collection practices.

In Canada, FB has prevented sharing new links since June 2023. Expected it to hit other places, but wasn't sure when. The tech bro arse kissing ritual was the green light.

Except for sponsored links by places like the Globe which pay FB per article to show as a sponsored post to get around the rules.

Interesting how that works, isn't it? That and all the news-free podcasts and conspiracy theory alternate news sources that remain shareable.

Said good bye to the bird, downloaded FB archive, now alerting friends and family before shutting that down, too.

Europe desperately needs its own social media platforms, with full transparency including the algorithms.

Well, there is Xing... and Habbo 😅

So anything that doesn't profit them is Spam.

I'd also ditch FB, but none of my friends are on other sites. Because they say the same. Its like cannot have a job because you do not have x years of experience. But cannot have experience because you do not have the job :).

I wonder if this is a similar problem to DistroWatch being hit. Maybe the moderator robot is being too paranoid or something. (oversimplification but you get the idea lol)
