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.
Just like how people thought AOL was the Internet 20 years back.
Exactly. We’ve come full-circle. The likes of AOL, Prodigy, and Compuserve were practically eradicated by the open internet, and it’s taken 30+ years to get even close to clawing it back into some kind of walled garden. But it looks like they’re making progress.
