Facebook just announced a huge change that’ll make the old people so confused
The conventional notion about Facebook these days is that the users for whom the Facebook app is still a core part of their existence are, to use a scientific label for this particular demographic, "the olds." Younger netizens -- and, in fact, plenty of Facebook-nevers -- have flocked to apps like Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok, where ephemerality is a greater part of the overall experience.
Rather than doubling down on the older Facebook faithful who are still logging into the app every day, though, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Thursday, July 21, announced a new bid to appeal to younger users. To make the overall Facebook app experience, in other words, a completely overhauled product that feels a bit more like TikTok. One that also adds new feeds that users can toggle through. And which, if we're honest, is probably going to completely befuddle the old people still on the app.
