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.

    3 billion monthly active sure sounds a little excessive. I wonder if there’s some shenanigans going on, combining other facebook’s services.

      Jane Doe has a personal account, two business accounts, a page she set up for her dog, and a secret account for affairs. There are five monthly active users right there.

      Where I’m from. Facebook is free of charge on data connections on some Telcos.

      That’s why almost all people with data connection, whether pre paid or post paid are most likely using Facebook.
