Mod Post 300k content monetization challenge mega-thread

99 Upvotes

(reminder: the mods of /r/facebook are not affiliated with meta or Facebook)

For over two months now, people have been making posts here and there regarding the 300k content challenge that Meta/Facebook has claimed for content. Of late, that is practically all anyone is posting. Having the same post over and over makes the sub a mess, so these posts are going to be pulled.

Before pulling some of the posts, here are the headlines after searching 300k challenge in the sub:

  • Facebook 300k monetization challenge, someone already got invited? Almost end of August, someone had to be invited already, right?
  • Finally got monetised from the 300k challenge or whatever lollllllllll
  • Facebook Monetization 300k views challenge. Are we officially getting scammed by Meta? (mod note: this one was three days ago)
  • New 300k monetization challenge, has anyone completed it yet? What happened? (mod note: this one was two months ago)
  • Spoke to live agent regarding 300k challenge the response is unacceptable
  • Anyone else still waiting for invitation after 300k challenge from meta (mod note: two days ago)

... the list goes on and on... like, a lot.

The purpose of this subreddit is for articles about Facebook (Mark Zuckerberg found harvesting human souls for his robot army) or tech support. Similar to when an outage causes thousands of posts to happen, everyone posting the same few things over and over again is not going to help anyone, so for the few folk out there that have found this post thanks to searching the sub (there are DOZENS of you) or found through a search engine, please post any of your thoughts, frustrations, and successes on said topic in this thread. If you happen to see a 300k post mentioned afterwards, please report it, rule would be either 5 for no meme or custom response: repost.

To answer a big question that's posted a lot:

Are we being scammed?

I mean, it's Facebook so technically just using the platform is a scam in and of itself, however, here are a few links from users claiming they finally got theirs:

Here is a link from someone who was able to contact a "rep" (a term used loosely in the world of AI)

With there being said, Facebook has 2.11 billion daily active users. So if you take the conversation above with this information, then it makes sense it could take an insanely long time for them to do whatever review it is they claim they need to do.

Remember this extremely important quote:

I haven't opened this account in so long, and when I did, I was met with a disabled account. Tried to appeal with the video selfie thing, but it still won't let me try to recover it.

I've done nothing that's remotely related to child exploitation. I've also seen some others here dealing with the same thing.

Is there a fix? I have a lot of photos and messages there that are very important to me.

I logged into my account this morning, and found this notification. I have no idea what this means or does for me.

I know others have shared about this on Reddit, but I hadn't seen a screenshot of the details.

Can I back out of this? Is it required? Can I just return to MySpace??

Discussion Who I see and interact with on my Facebook page has totally changed.

• Upvotes

Over the last month or so, I've noticed that those I usually interact with, friends, family, groups, and pages, have mostly disappeared, and instead I am seeing people I've never heard of, have no friends or likes, in common, and a good portion of them, their pages or in spanish, German, French, Italian, and even Dutch/Swedish.

Anyone else notice this? Why am I seeing complete strangers and foreign languages (Inread/write/speak and understand only English) and have to search out those I interact with to see what they have posted lately?

I totally understand the "expand your circle of friends" thing, but why close what I have and try to make me form a whole new circle with people I can't even communicate with?

Tech Support Old webcam videos of me from 15 years ago that I never recorded or uploaded are suddenly appearing as Facebook Reels. Has this happened to anyone else?

38 Upvotes

This is honestly one of the weirdest and most disturbing things I've experienced, and I'm wondering if anyone else has had something similar happen.

I searched my own name using the general search bar on Facebook with the "All" filter selected and found five videos of myself posted as Reels that I have absolutely no memory of recording or uploading.

Two of them were particularly disturbing because I was doing really weird things that I don't even remember doing. It genuinely freaked me out and made me question my own memory because I would NEVER record myself doing those things, let alone upload them as Reels.

Two of the other videos were just a few seconds of me sitting at my computer, doing nothing unusual. I'm 100% sure I never recorded or uploaded those either.

What's even stranger is that the Reels seem to randomly appear and disappear from the search results. Sometimes I search my name and they're there, and other times they're completely gone.

Another really weird thing is that when I go directly to the Reels section of my Facebook profile, none of these videos appear there. They only seem to show up when I search for my name using the general search bar and select "All."

I ended up deleting the disturbing Reels and keeping the others.

Has anyone experienced anything like this? Could this be some kind of Facebook glitch, were they recording me and saving my videos somewhere without my consent?

I'm genuinely confused and would love to know if anyone has an explanation or knows how these Reels could have been created and posted without me realizing it.

Discussion Messenger links reset to home page - I cannot understand how some of the problems with this app go unaddressed

1 Upvotes

It feels like it's been years this app has been doing this. Someone sends you a reel, FB marketplace listing, post, or link in messenger and you can't return to the messenger chat from there. You get sent back to the FB home page and have to navigate back to messenger.

How is a problem that glaring never addressed?

Yet every time I get on the app my menu/toolbar/buttons have been switched from the top to the bottom? IG is the same way, they endlessly fuck around with unimportant things and never actually fix anything

Disabled/hacked Facebook Inhabilitado por Ciberseguridad en horas de la madrugada del 22/09/2026

1 Upvotes

El día 22 de Septiembre en horas de la madrugada, facebook deshabilitó mi cuenta de perfil. Me pidió hacer una selfie. Luego de hacer la selfie, Oh! Su cuenta ha sido inhabilitada por ciberseguridad. Está es una decisión definitiva. Sin darme opción apelacion.

Luego de ver consejos aquí, comentarios de otros usuarios sobre el Meta Verified, intenté hacer el proceso. Me asistió un agente quien elevó el caso al dpto. De Ciberseguridad.

Luego de un mes y tres días, el sistema cerró el caso sin darme una respuesta, a pesar de que cada 3 días le pedía actualización con fines de que no lo cerrará por inactividad.

Abrí otro caso Pero está vez reportando problema de anuncios en una de mis páginas, ya que el chatbot no me quería pasar a un humano. Luego de hablar nuevamente con un humano, este me pidió fotos, etc, para el final decirme que fue una decisión definitiva, sin darme opción a recuperar mis páginas monetizadas ni otras de negocios, dónde además pagaba publicidad.

Facebook/hacked la primera vez no me sirvió de nada. Pero está vez por curiosidad fui al chatbot de negocios en soporte de facebook. Le expliqué el caso al chatbot de que necesito pagar anuncios en mi página y este me dió un link donde si me permitió volver a subir una selfie.

Sistema dice que en 48horaa me darán una respuesta.

Vuelvo en 48 horas con la actualización. Voy dejando historial para que les sirva a otros. Aunque no todos los casos son iguales, Pero quizás esto ayude a evitar algunos puntos como pagar meta verified si al final no ayudan en nada.

Tech Support I was removed from a public group after new post got high engagement

1 Upvotes

I posted on an public group after I joined it, post went to admin approval, and was posted an hour or some time later. As soon as it went live, it received ALOT of engagement, like im sure it got 64 comments in 30 mins. It was a very basic post too. But suddenly the post couldn't load and i couldn't open the group either. checked my activity log and it just said "you stopped being a member of xxx group". What do I even do in this scenario, I had to post an actually advice seeking post on that group, this one was just done to check if the group has admin approval or not. Is there a way to contact fb or the admins to have me back in yhe group?

Hello, I have a Facebook page with 41K followers, and over the last two days, I’ve noticed that I’m losing around 2K followers per day. Some of my friends have noticed the same issue on their pages. Has this happened to anyone else? The strange thing is that my dashboard analytics don’t show a loss of 4K followers.

Tech Support All my messages to sellers on Marketplace are never received and go straight to spam.

2 Upvotes

.

Hello, I created my Facebook account 2 months ago, and I want to point out that my account has no restrictions.

The problem is with Marketplace. I can sell items and buyers can contact me without any issues. However, whenever I message sellers about items I want to buy, all my messages go straight to their spam folder and never reach them.

I have reported this issue to Facebook at least 10 times, but nothing has changed. I have tried everything, including updating my profile and waiting a week, but the problem remains.

Does anyone have any ideas?thx

All the agents are AI right now and it takes ages to get a response, I have already 2 cases waiting for a response for over a week. I will gladly pay if someone can connect me with an agent who can help me out. I have been hacked and they stole my business portfolio and two Ad accounts.

Tech Support Technical Issue: Screen freezes when reopening the Facebook app. Android

Post image
1 Upvotes

This started sometime last week. I can open Facebook and scroll, click on things with no issue usually. However, if I minimize the app (on mobile), then do anything else on my phone even for about 3 seconds, if I then go back to the app, the screen gets dark, any reels pause, a grey box appears in the center, and the only way to fix it and be able to do anything in the app is to force close the app and restart the app. This happens again and again and has been so frustrating.

I have tried uninstalling the app, and no updates are available in the Google play store. Any suggestions would be helpful.
