Facebook is removing trending topics feature
Facebook is shutting down the trending topic, this feature helps to highlight interesting conversations on the platform. The company announced this on June 1st, 2018 and states,
"We’re removing Trending soon to make way for future news experiences on Facebook. We introduced Trending in 2014 as a way to help people discover news topics that were popular across the Facebook community. However, it was only available in five countries and accounted for less than 1.5% of clicks to news publishers on average. From research, we found that over time people found the product to be less and less useful. We will remove Trending from Facebook next week and we will also remove products and third-party partner integrations that rely on the Trends API."
While the trending topics will disappear, Facebook is currently testing a new option with 80 publishers around the world.
