monthly active users
Doesn’t that include people who log in once per month to check their messages, scroll down two posts in their feed and log out?

It’s still 4B, even if just a fraction interact meaningfully is still a lot… And if it’s growing it certainly isn’t indicative of death

Yes, as it always has

Facebook will never die. Too many people in third-world countries rely on Facebook for internet access. Facebook is happy to provide free connectivity to keep people hooked in countries like Philippines. They mask the images and videos in FB Messenger, but then provide a very ad-heavy Facebook lite experience for free. They brokered a deal with the carriers in these countries for this. Facebook is here to stay for a very, very long time.
