Facebook will die one day. The younger gens don’t want to use it. At all.
I’d bet dollars to donuts that if someone developed a viable place for people to work out where and how to meet, Facebook usage would drop like a rock among those older gens who still use it.
Younger gens are on Instagram. I think Zuckerburg is clever to have bought various social media platform as backup in case Facebook dies. He also changed the name of the company to Meta to remove the more direct association with Facebook should the platform die.
