Meta will begin testing its X-style Community Notes starting March 18th. The feature will roll out on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads in the US – but Meta won’t publicly publish the notes to start as it tests the Community Notes writing and rating system.

Meta will start testing "Community Notes" in the U.S. from March 18 using technology developed by Elon Musk-owned X, the Facebook parent said on Thursday, two months after scrapping its fact-checking program amid pressure from conservatives.

Meta will use X's open-source algorithm as the foundation for its rating system and will gradually roll out the feature after testing, with plans for future global expansion. The focus is on providing helpful context without impacting content distribution, and emphasizing that the system will prioritize agreement between those who usually disagree.
