What about the other sites? Google said it may be shown but Google added it will "no longer be shown regularly" for all other sites.
How do you get your site to show these? Well, Google said, "sites may automatically be considered for this treatment depending on their eligibility," so there is not much you can do but try to improve your site.
Here is an example of an "authoritative site" that still has FAQs:
And like Google explained in its original announcement, FAQ snippets will still remain for well-known, authoritative health and government websites. Like this example below: pic.twitter.com/xiSxZ5Km6j
