Seriously, how are there still so many people on meta?
Social networks become part of people life, they use them to talk to relatives, friends and to build communities. Once social networks started to become popular, facebook with the help of governments, rich people and other corporations managed to become the biggest platform, they got so big that they turned into a phone book where everyone was in. Meta used the billions we feed them, our data and their popularity to build/buy other social networks and tools people are now hooked up. In italy whatsapp replaced mails and it's what most people are using to talk with each other.
