Facebook Reels, TikTok, and MORE

Facebook Reels officially launched this early 2022 and the company offered the feature for all needs of the content creator to bring their content to the social media platform. Meta's Facebook Reels are similar to Instagram's Reels and the vertical videos provide a new format for everyone to enjoy, shying away from the horizontal or landscape layout.

TikTok and Facebook are now competitors in the social media industry, with reports saying that there have been plots against the Chinese platform.
