In a news we shared with you recently, we mentioned that Facebook will change its algorithm to resemble TikTok and focus on features similar to those in TikTok . Now, there has been a new development on this issue. Blake Chandlee, who was transferred to TikTok after spending 12 years on Facebook, explained in an interview with CNBC why Facebook cannot do such a thing .

However, when we look at the Facebook front, we see that there is an emphasis on determination in the statements made in the past days. We will see together what Facebook’s response to Chandlee will be…
