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 says nothing about how much they use reach platform though. Just logging into Facebook and checking what's up over a month will count here.

People don't really delete their facebook account. Just keep it around. And at one point I'm pretty sure everyone had an account.

Even worse, I think I'm part of that number because I've unsuccessfully tried to delete my Facebook Account three times now. But every time I check in to make sure it's finally been deleted, it's still there. I'm at the brink of suing them for a GDPR violation at this point. F*ck Facebook!
