  • Publication number: 20210359969
    Abstract: Techniques are described that enable a user to create a collection of content posts on a social networking system. In some cases, a social networking system receives multiple content posts to be shared, and shares the multiple content posts with a first group of user accounts. The social networking system receives a request to create a collection of one or more content posts of the multiple content posts, where the request includes a descriptor associated with the collection. The social networking system generates the collection of the one or more content posts including the descriptor, and provides the collection to a second group of user accounts.

  • Patent number: 11048381
    Abstract: When a user sees a content item presented by a social networking system, the user may select an option to save the content item. The saved content item may be reinserted in a newsfeed presented to the user, integrated into collections, archived, used for notifications to the user, or otherwise subsequently presented to the user. A plug-in may be used to save content items accessed through websites external to the social networking system. As privacy settings associated with a saved content item are modified, the modified privacy settings are applied to the saved content item, which may prevent the user saving the content item from subsequently viewing the saved content item.
