A New Era for Cannabis Conversations: Meta Opens the Door
In a surprising turn of events, Mark Zuckerberg has announced a bold new direction for Meta’s platforms—Facebook and Instagram. The tech giant is set to replace its long-controversial fact-checking system with a Community Notes feature, a collaborative and crowd-driven approach akin to the system employed by X (formerly Twitter).
In case you've lost us on those platforms after so many bans on all kinds of cannabis accounts, here are our active accounts.

The announcement has sparked widespread discussion, but for the cannabis community, it feels like a long-awaited breath of fresh air!
Over the past few years, anyone passionate about cannabis has faced significant hurdles on Facebook and Instagram. Posts about cultivation, medicinal benefits, and even harmless jokes were often flagged, shadowbanned, or outright removed. Entire communities were silenced, and businesses like ours had to navigate a frustrating landscape where the plant we love was treated as taboo and our accounts were constantly getting shadowbanned or suspended. It’s been a challenging time, and many of us wondered if these platforms were worth the effort at all.
But now, change seems to be on the horizon. This shift suggests a move away from heavy-handed censorship and toward a more nuanced, balanced approach. For the cannabis industry, this could mean fewer restrictions, fewer bans, and the ability to once again foster meaningful discussions and share information with our global community.
The timing of this announcement couldn’t be more poignant. Recently, Telegram—a platform once heralded as a bastion of free speech—disappointed many of its users by taking actions that seemed to contradict its founding principles. For cannabis enthusiasts and advocates, it felt like yet another setback in the fight for open dialogue. However, as the saying goes, when one door closes, another opens.
