Meta is already working on community feedback for topics

Meta announced last week that it would ditch fact-checkers in favor of X-like community feedback, and self-descriptions ““Leak” Alessandro Paluzzi Screenshots shared on Monday Shows what the feature might look like in Threads.

Based on the screenshots, it looks like you’ll be able to start the process of writing a community note from the three-dot menu in the post, where you can already access features like muting an account or reporting a post. Another screenshot shows that when you write a community note, your note will be anonymous.

A third screenshot shows Instagram’s Help Center page about Community Feedback that contains a button to join the program’s waitlist. However, the page layout looks different from other live help center pages I can see now.

Meta did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Meta said Last week It plans to “gradually implement community feedback in the US over the next couple of months” and then “improve it throughout the year,” but did not specify exactly when the feature might be available in threads. My colleague Alex Heath reported Sunday That community feedback “was not included in the product roadmap prior to this week.”

In addition to the move to Community Notes, Meta said it is also getting rid of “a number of restrictions” on topics like immigration and gender, and bringing “civic content” back to Facebook, Instagram and Threads. Instagram chief Adam Mosseri posted a video today showing How to adjust The amount of political content you see in threads.
