Facebook will no longer show you 'now connected on Messenger' alertsJune 9 (AZINS) The next time you become friends with someone on Facebook, you will no longer see the annoying 'You Are Now Connected On Messenger' alert.

The company has realised it was being too pushy when it sent alerts for new friends joining your list. Facebook said that it is working to make these notifications more useful and send fewer of them, TechCrunch has reported. It will use machine learning to understand which user does not like the alerts and based on past behaviour will stop sending some of them.

According to previous reports, Facebook wants to make its social networking portal go big with gamers. The company has introduced a new Gaming Creator Page for gamers to post live or pre-recorded gaming videos.

The new portal will be available at fb.gg where users can discover gaming videos based on creators they follow, and pages and groups they like, Cnet has reported. Facebook has also launched a Level Up program for emerging gaming streamers build a fan base and earn money from subscriptions.
