Facebook had a busy June that included rolling out Instagram video, introducing the option to add photos in comments, revamping pages’ analytics dashboards and dealing with a software bug that exposed some users’ contact information.
Pushed out of the limelight by those events was another update to Facebook’s ever-changing commenting features: the ability to sort comments chronologically or by activity.
Only pages and select individuals currently have the new feature. However, more and more users, as well as their friends and the people they follow, are slowly getting access to the sorting capabilities.
So far, we’ve found sorting to be beneficial for quickly moderating real-time comments, especially if you’re managing more than one page.
Previously, since the reply-to-comments feature became available in March, popular comments would surface to the top without the option to view them chronologically.
Should Facebook allow everyone to access this feature, soon? Or is it unnecessary? If you’ve tested the feature already, what do you like about it? Does it help you manage your page or profile more efficiently? Let us know in the comments, below.
