You may have heard of the ‘Other’ folder where Facebook used to dump messages from unknown friends, however there’s another hidden source too. So, how do you find these missing messages? (I’m still one of those old schoolers who tries to separate work and pleasure on Facebook…even though my Facebook feed is full of digital marketing discussions). A common scenario for this is if you post of Facebook groups or elsewhere, and someone decides to message you directly…or someone who isn’t your friend on Facebook decides to message you there, instead of going and finding your phone number. At the moment Facebook Messenger’s algorithm has a feature where it will filter out message requests from people who aren’t your Facebook friends.

Quite often I say computers aren’t quite as smart as us humans in many circumstances. I missed out hockey games, offers for things I was selling….and most importantly, messages about work where the sender thought I was ignoring them. How would you feel if you lost out on business leads by not seeing a message, or your friends were feeling rejected by you…and you didn’t even realise?įacebook Messenger may be doing this to you.
