Is it me, or is the social media landscape moving at 2x speed? 😮💨
Here’s everything you might have missed this week:
- LinkedIn: Premium subscribers can now test competing AI models via the new Crosscheck feature. (Anyone tried this yet?)
- Threads: You can now create sharable views count cards. (Great visual for sharing on reports)
- Instagram: Big “Edits” upgrades are here; smarter memory tools and better captioning.
- Pinterest: New study showed they are crushing CPG ad performance benchmarks. High-intent shopping is having a moment.
- WhatsApp: Meta is testing “WhatsApp Plus” for those who want themes and custom ringtones.
- Google: A heads-up for paid social teams; election ads are officially exempt from YouTube/Discover placement rules.
- Mastodon: Their main server was hit by a DDoS attack, expect some instability if you’re active there.
Which of these is actually going to change your workflow on Monday? 👀
