Meta’s AI Hits 1 Billion Monthly Users…
A weekly newsletter about all things social media by Nuelink
Welcome back to the Nuesletter! Here’s your weekly social media scoop:
🤖 Elon Musk’s xAI Teams Up with Telegram: xAI’s chatbot Grok is coming to Telegram’s 1B+ users. Telegram CEO Pavel Durov claims the deal is worth $300M in cash and equity with 50% revenue sharing, but Musk denies any financial agreement. Grok will help with chat summaries, writing, and even sticker creation, expanding xAI’s reach amid ongoing scrutiny of Telegram’s moderation policies.
🔐 X Pauses End-to-End Encryption in DMs: X (formerly Twitter) temporarily removed end-to-end encryption from direct messages while revamping its messaging system. No timeline yet on when encryption returns, but this signals a big change in how private messaging works on the platform.
📈 Meta AI Hits 1 Billion Monthly Users: Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that Meta AI now has 1 billion monthly active users across its apps, doubling from 500 million just back in September 2024. AI adoption keeps accelerating at Meta!
📸 Instagram Now Supports 3:4 Photos: Instagram rolled out support for 3:4 aspect ratio photos, the default on most phone cameras. Now your photos won’t get cropped when posted as singles or in carousels.
⚠️ TikTok Users Targeted by Malware Scam: Cybercriminals used TikTok videos in a novel social engineering campaign tricking users into downloading malware, Trend Micro warns. Stay cautious while scrolling!
🔍 YouTube Shorts Gets Google Lens: YouTube announced Google Lens integration coming soon to Shorts. This lets viewers search what they see in videos, enhancing discovery with visual search in an interactive new way.
💰 YouTube Adds New Monetization Check: YouTube introduced a secondary review process for ads to better align with advertiser standards and boost creator revenue. This may add up to 24 hours for review but aims to improve ad suitability accuracy.

Our Two Cents on Social Media Marketing 🧙♂️
Treat Pinterest like a visual search engine. Include clear, specific keywords in your pin titles and descriptions that your target audience would search for. Think about long-tail phrases and natural language to boost discoverability.
Use keywords in your profile name, bio, and board titles/descriptions. Organize boards around specific topics or niches so Pinterest’s algorithm understands what your content is about and shows it to the right audience.
Vertical pins (aspect ratio around 2:3) perform best because they take up more space in feeds. Adding clear, readable text overlays helps communicate the pin’s value instantly and improves engagement, Pinterest favors pins that get clicks and saves.
As usual, use Nuelink to keep your social media marketing plan running without investing much time and resources with its automation and scheduling features.
