Meta to start testing X-like Community Notes on its platforms next week

Meta's social media services, primarily Facebook and Instagram, have long relied on its third-party fact-checking program to distinguish between accurate information and false claims, essentially deciding what thrives on the platform and what doesn't. In January, however, Meta decided to abruptly end the program in favor of an X (Twitter)-like crowdsourced Community Notes approach, citing a wide and diverse range of user perspectives to be more balanced and less biased.
