Sources said that in the small rollout to a single-digit percentage of users, engagement with the new design has stalled. So much so, in fact, that the majority of users won\u2019t receive this Facebook redesign we saw unveiled this year.<\/p>\n

Instead, sources said, it\u2019s back to the drawing board on a better News Feed, while using the failed first launch as a data point for creating a better Version 2. When users finally do see something new, it will likely be far less drastic of a change, incorporating only some of the modifications that worked better than others.<\/p>\n

A Facebook spokesperson confirmed that the company is still testing the redesign and taking feedback from users, but would not comment on whether the the redesign has stalled.<\/p>\n

That aspect of the redesign seems to be moving forward. Last week, Facebook announced changes to the News Feed algorithm that are meant to surface more “high quality” content.<\/p>\n

It appears that the overall site design is simply a step (or two) behind News Feed’s intended functionality.<\/p>\n
