As per the Facebook blog post, this Manage Activity tool is aimed at allowing users to easily manage their old posts. It lets users archive old content that is then not visible to others but is still kept on Facebook for the user only. Users can also move old posts to the trash and these posts will stay there for 30 days before being permanently deleted. Users can, however, restore them or delete them manually if they so choose. Further, both these actions can be performed in bulk, meaning users can manage all their old posts at once with the help of filters. These filters include categories, date, and people, with more options in each of them.
