The Explore section is getting a new redesign, Stories are getting more dynamic sharing options, and a new “bully filter” will help keep toxic behaviour from polluting the comment section.
The innovations are at various levels of development, some which have already been rolled out. Others are in the testing phase.

Video conferencing has been rumoured for some time, and finally nearing official launch status.
But that’s not all, Facebook is putting its fingers in all kinds of pies, exploring another dating feature, new ways to clear browser history, and updates to groups and messaging. It looks like a social spring clean is afoot.
