It appears that stories in Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, and Messenger are all completely separate from each other. If you want to post to all Facebook products and Snapchat, you'll have to do it five times.
edit: Facebook and Messenger may be linked. oops. Well, if you wanted to post to all Facebook products stories and Whatsapp, you'd have to post four times; tons of redundancy remains.
- jakebasile 10y agoThat's pretty goofy. I don't use all of those, but of the group Facebook and Messenger are the most directly tied so it'd make sense to sync, or more succinctly just make it the same product. I get the appeal of stories and I may actually use it, but I think their shotgun approach is a bit too unfocused.
- scottmf 10y agoFacebook is trying hard to make Messenger a separate product from Facebook.
- xd1936 10y agoI believe (though I'm not certain) that Facebook and Messenger's Stories clones are the same data
- jakebasile 10y agoI got access to the Facebook version, and as far as I can tell they are not linked. I added a photo to Facebook stories and it didn't show up in Messenger. That's an annoying move.
