A bot account on X, originally created by The New York Times journalist Kevin Roose, regularly highlighted the most popular Facebook posts based on data from Meta\u2019s CrowdTangle platform. These posts often focused on right-wing spokespeople and Pages, making people think Facebook\u2019s algorithms boosted such content.<\/p>\n<p>In response, Facebook disbanded the CrowdTangle team in July 2021 following a disagreement over the content displayed by the app. Despite expectations of the project\u2019s end, CrowdTangle continued offering data insights to users. Since then, rumors have circulated about Meta planning to sunset the platform, and now, those rumors are confirmed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Meta is saying<\/strong>.
