Comparison Between Old And New Page Layout

In the above screenshot, it is clearly visible that the “Like” button has been removed from the page. The company gives more value to the “Follow” which includes the follower count. The profile image is also shifted from the left to the middle.

The removal of the “Like” button makes more sense as it is not as useful as a follow button. The “Follow” button is considered to be a more powerful index. This makes sure that the user is notified of new updates.
