Over the years, Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) has become incrementally less social than it used to be. The platform has become increasingly populated by publishers looking to distribute articles and other content, which is interspersed with pictures of what your cousin's boyfriend's roommate just ate for lunch. For example, approximately 67% of Americans now get some of their news on social media platforms, up from 62% last year, according to the Pew Research Center.
Well, Facebook wants to be more social again, and is now testing out a new way to distinguish between publisher content and social updates from friends and family.
