Facebook officially rolls out its New design and users and not happy with the development. While every other social media platform moves ahead with the times, Facebook seems to be moving backwards.
Reports were doing the rounds that Facebook is all set to roll back the Classic design and force users to use the ‘New Facebook’ and the dreaded day has finally arrived as several users received a notification stating their news feed will be changed to the New Facebook that is ”Fresh and simpler.”
The new design is everything but fresh and simple and its ugly at best. The news feed and side bar is wide apart and the notification tab along with the message icon looks out of place. Users have seen several changes in the design for a decade now and this has to be the worst of them all.
While every other social media platform is moving ahead with the times, Facebook seems to be moving backwards and calling it fresh and new. The switch to something which is ugly in design, will be permanent and it’s only a matter of time before users begin to jump out of the platform and move to apps that’s more relevant.
Facebook has been in decline since a few years now for allowing toxicity to spread in terms of politics and religion and the social media app seems to no longer be user friendly. Add to the new tasteless design, its only a matter of time for Facebook to step down as the dominant platform for users.

What’s New In The ‘New Facebook’?
Facebook claims the new design makes users find things faster and has streamlined navigation. The company claims users can now find videos, pictures, games, groups, pages among others quickly and the home page along with the transition pages loads faster.
The new design also boasts of a dark mode for people who enjoy lower brightness and has reduced the contrast and vibrancy. The design minimizes screen glare for use in low light.
Facebook also claims users can now easily create Events, Pages, Groups and boost ads on their platform. The new design also allows users to preview a group before creating it and see how it looks like in real time on both mobile and the computer.
