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.

    This sounds accurate to me. I have an account, and there are certain people that I use Messenger for, but I haven’t updated my status or shared anything in about ten years.

      That’s the same boat as me.

      Messenger and nothing else for 9 years now.

      Reddit killed Facebook for me when i started getting banned for memes etc

      Then reddit killed reddit for me

        I started a facebook account in 2006 and stopped using it a few years later. I still have an account but only look at it maybe 2 or 3 times a year.

        I hate when I have to log in to find a business though. It 's infuriating.

        And I hate reddit with the glare of a thousand suns.
