Have you noticed the rocket icon in the Facebook app? Do you know what it means? Apparently, Facebook wants to broaden our horizons!
Facebook he introduced quietly rocket icon (at users Android of devices appears at the top, under device users iOS and at the bottom of the app) and left many users wandering in the dark.

Alternative news will consist of content for which Facebook's algorithm estimates that we will like it, but draws it from the pages that currently we don't like. Of course, it will take into account our preferences and previous interests and thus break us out of the cycle of always the same news. Do you know the novelty? Soon we will probably all be enjoying it.
