    Sure it is. Is it Meta’s algorithm, is it user reach, is it paid ads, is it channels, is it memes, is it leaning, is it…

    Meta is participating in a pretty big study with actual researchers here. I’m no Meta fan, and this is partly for PR I’m sure, but this is a really good thing that more social media companies should do.
