Facebook Will Allow Nicknames When Posting in Groups

The article below discusses how Facebook now lets people post in Groups using a nickname instead of their real name. You can also pick a custom picture for that nickname inside that group.

This is not totally anonymous. Facebook still knows who you are, but other members see your chosen nickname instead of your real profile name.

Instagram launched Instagram for TV.

The article below discusses how reels now play on TVs, starting with Amazon Fire TV, and on more devices coming soon.

People can sit on the couch and watch Reels like a TV channel, not just scroll on their phone.

This means short-form video is now living room content. This definitely changes how content should be created and repurposed.

Instagram is changing hashtags!

Instagram now limits hashtags to just a few per post (about 5 max). This represents a significant shift from the past, when you could use up to 30.

- More hashtags won’t boost your reach like they used to.

- Instagram wants fewer, more relevant tags that describe what your post is about.

- Focus on words your audience would actually search for.

Tip: Pick 3–5 tags that match your topic well — don’t just add random ones.

TikTok is NOT gone in the US — but it’s changing.

The article below discusses how a Major U.S. group (Oracle, Silver Lake, MGX) is taking control of the U.S. version of TikTok so it can continue to operate. Data, moderation and the video feed will now be handled under a new U.S. company. The deal is set to close on January 22, 2026.



For more info: Will the TikTok deal mean the app changes in the US?

Yes — Still images inside Shorts, not just video.

If video isn’t always an option, this update is worth watching.

Why this matters

- Share content even when the video isn’t ready
- Repurpose posts faster
- Turn slides, tips, or webinar clips into Shorts
- Show up more without filming every time

Follow for simple updates on social media, repurposing, and webinar support.

Instagram is testing a new app layout!

The article below discusses how reels and DMs are getting bigger spots on the bottom menu.
This means faster scrolling, faster replies, and more focus on video.

This is another sign that shows:

- Reels drive visibility
- DMs drive conversations and sales

If you use Instagram for growth, ensure your videos are clear, and your messages are ready.

The deadline for TikTok to be sold to a U.S. company hits Dec. 16. This is the fourth time the deadline is expiring, and still, no approved U.S. buyer, no confirmation from ByteDance owners of TikTok, and no clear answer on whether TikTok will stay or go.

Tiffany Parson and Ashioma Isu from Virtual Hired Hand Team break it down:

- Why the U.S. wants TikTok sold
- What happened during the January shutdown
- Data privacy concerns
- Whether TikTok will actually be banned

If TikTok is a key part of your audience growth or sales:

- Start backing up your videos
- Drive traffic to your email list
- Stay active on other platforms

Don't wait for the deadline. Stay ready.

Australia now requires teens to be 16 years or older to use social media, but children are already finding ways to circumvent this requirement. In our off-topic Friday, Tiffany Parson and Ashioma Isu from Virtual Hired Hand Team discuss what’s really happening, why the rules don’t make sense, and how easy it is to bypass the new system.

The deadline for TikTok to be sold to a U.S. company is scheduled for December 16, 2025.

This is the fourth time the deadline is expiring, and still, no approved U.S. buyer, no confirmation from China, and no clear answer on whether TikTok will stay or go. This could end in a ban or another delay. No one knows.

If TikTok drives your traffic, leads, or sales:
- Back up your videos
- Push followers to your email list
- Stay active on other platforms

Don’t wait for last-minute surprises. Stay ready, not reactive.
