Facebook selects your posts using one hundred thousand parameters

The social network Facebook uses an algorithm relying on 100,000 parameters to sort the information displayed to its users. Originally designed in 2006 under the name EdgeRank before being replaced in 2011, this system evaluates each post according to criteria such as the author or the format. Posts are thus assigned a personal score to guess whether the internet user will comment on, share, or spend time on them.
