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.

    It still boggles me that there still isn’t a good popular plarform to look for events near me like facebook. Why doesnt imstagram instagram have this? Or even WhatsApp, that would be so much more useful that the crap stories they added, who cares about that?

        Yeah but it always left so awkward. People have to sign up for it just for the events, and for that there’s plenty of services. I mean having a service where your friends already are also have a list of events. The “in going” feature on Facebook was genius for that.
