Meta recently added a feature for Facebook in which its purpose is more on seeing contents in a chronological manner. This new feature is an added tab called Feeds.

The Home button on Facebook is actually the first one everyone used to see and discover different contents in chronological order, not until when the algorithm was introduced that the Home button now shows us feeds based on trend, engagement, or suggestions.

There’s a way to filter which set of content a user wants to see. There’s All, Favorites, Friends, Groups, and lastly Pages. So User now has more control over which content they want to see. And another thing is that there are no Suggested For You posts in Feeds and ads are included.

Every Home tab is unique for every user for the app uses a machine learning ranking system. This AI will handle what type of content to show the user which may seem valuable or relatable based on how the user interacts with the app.
