Facebook Really Wants People to Use Stories

The social network is testing three tweaks

Facebook is testing out three ways to encourage users to embrace its Stories feature.

The tweaks being experimented with are:

  • Making “Your Story” the default option when users begin creating posts. If they choose not to create a Story, they can opt for a regular post, specific groups or Messenger before sharing their content.
  • Making the Stories preview atop News Feed more visual by adding large preview tiles behind smaller profile pictures of the users who created them.
