If your Facebook posts are all appearing as public, it's likely because your default privacy settings for posts are set to 'Public.' To change this, head to the Privacy Settings and Tools section in your account settings. Here, you can adjust the 'Who can see your future posts?' setting to your preferred audience, such as 'Friends.' Remember to also review individual posts' privacy settings, as changes to your default settings won't affect posts you've already shared. This ensures a tailored and controlled sharing experience.
