Communities are one of Meta’s biggest bets for its social networks. Announced first for WhatsApp, then Messenger and Facebook, these platforms bring together chat groups revolving around a common social space or theme, such as the activities of a children’s school or neighborhood associations, in one place.
Communities have also been spotted on Instagram for a while, as reverse engineering expert Alessandro Paluzzi has shared since March and several times. The last thing known is that they have changed their name to Group Profiles.
Each community or group profile requires a description along with its own username and profile photo.. Users can join as members or administrators, and the event can be public or private.
From the images Paluzzi shared in August, members of a group profile can share posts and photos on that profileIf it is a public group, it will be visible to everyone.
Meta has confirmed this new feature and testing done in Canada. “We’re testing the ability to join a group profile and share stories, feed posts or reels with group members so people can connect with others about their interests in a private space,” said a spokesperson for Business Insider. up Europa Press.
