I read “it’s dying” by people on Discord and Reddit all the time, but the numbers prove otherwise. It’s been going up this entire time and sitting over 3 billion MONTHLY ACTIVE USERS!

I feel like the bubble around people on other platforms saying “who uses Facebook anymore lol” is kind of wild given the numbers. Keep in mind these are active users not just abandoned accounts.

    2. It is a general purpose platform: it has personal posting, business listings, messaging, groups, communities, photos, news, short format video, live streaming, p2p sales, business sales, event advertising,

    Most other platforms do one or several of those things much better than FB, but FB is a one stop shop and has enough stuff to keep to keep users engaged
