Key Questions Answered
Your Algorithm is an AI-powered feature introduced by Meta on Facebook that lets users explain in their own words which subjects they want to see more or less frequently. Rather than relying exclusively on automated recommendations or scrolling habits, users can provide explicit feedback to influence recommendations across both Feed and Reels in real time.
Meta has revised the options available through the three-dot menu attached to individual posts on Facebook. This allows users to easily access Your Algorithm or directly mark content as "Interested" or "Not interested" without having to navigate away from the content.
Instagram rolled out Your Algorithm for Reels in December 2025 before extending it to Feed and Explore in June. Meanwhile, Threads adopted a related approach through a feature called Dear Algo to help users influence their recommended content.
