FACEBOOK MONTHLY ACTIVE USER COUNT IS 94% OF GLOBAL INTERNET USERS. 🤯💩
Discussion
Because they merged TikTok with it.
🪦
🤦🏻♀️ FACEBOOK SUCKS
WHAT A WASTE
That’s pretty mediocre.
Good to see we’re making progress over here 😂
Facebook is shit.
Holy shit. Is that Facebook alone, or all their apps combined?
they have to join nostr (only). 🫡
Fb is like +60% bots tho
It can’t be. It’s a pile of garbage interface.
Wwwwwwoooooooowwwwww.com
not me though
nostr's surpassed that fake metric and we now have 16 billion daily active users
plus the bots and dvms
🤯
dams, but I guess that includes Whatsapp and IG 🤷 still
Corporate Captured Internet
What's % Nostr using Sats?
Makes sense. People like to "show" how great they are doing and love the "rush" of getting likes and comments for how great they show themselves to be to their "friends"...whether their content is actually true of not is highly questionable.
I personally believe the more people post on FB about how great their kids, marriage, life, etc. are, the opposite is more likely the real story. Kinda sad TBH
People still use Facebook?
Wow hard to believe so many are still using that shit. I stopped long before Nostr was even a thing and my life is infinitely richer as a result.
Zuckerberg out here collecting users like Infinity Stones. 💎
Not here it’s f’ing not. Ain’t been on that shit for over a decade
Same here!! Fuck Facebook!!
we got so lucky that Libra didn’t work or Meta would have been incentivized to pay people to scroll and just keep serving ads while ensuring their ad revenue gained more than their Libra given away (expenses) and they would have made so much the last 5 years… and people wouldn’t know how to tie their shoes or get off the couch
That can’t be true
I wonder how much of that traffic is just the marketplace, and how that number factors in users with multiple accounts.
Happy to be one of the 6% that hopefully grows to 100.
I've been saying this for like a year and a half now.
Ignored every time.
Glad I am 6%
I use Fakebook every day, but I HATE IT!
Proud to be part of the 6% sheesh
They probably also count messenger only users.
Da faq!! That’s insane
Quit several years ago, quit smoking cigarettes shortly thereafter.
Healthier here all around.
With goats named max and bitcoin
And 66℅ of bots
Didn't know I am among bottom six percentile :-) - of internet users .. folks already moved on !
Now do it without counting FB trackers
"Facebook has 3.07 billion monthly active users (MAUs) worldwide currently."
lord have mercy...
we are sooo early
Dagg… Zucks best know Nostr be coming to flip the play
Facebook's hyper agressive growth strategy includes targeting fresh internet users in poor countries where most people access internet via mobile.
They partner with local mobile operators to offer 'free unlimited data' for accessing Facebook and its ecosystem, while the rest of the internet is 'paid.'
For most of the new internet users, Facebook is the internet. It's the most efficient data harvesting operation, maybe ever.
Geee sounds a lot like how world coin operated with eyeball scanner 🤨
I heard about this 15 years ago. I guess the media doesn't want us to know.
First we agree & this isn’t directed at you. Just my feels considering …
The irony of people in US getting upset 😭
FFS 🙈 most willingly fed the #AI the last 20 years or more.
We didn’t have a precedent for how bad this was going to get. Silly us.
Especially not for dealing with the vultures that definitely swooped in …
“The road to hell is paved with good intentions” rings deafeningly loud.
Empathy. 🫂 but Not if we thank #Satoshi
In the sense we try to build a better world outside of it … but ima very much a no revenge cause below has always proven true in this lifetime 🫂✨
We won't come after you, we'd only end up provin'
In the end, revenge sends zen to the defendant
I know that statement's true, I wear it like a pendant
wow that's fucked
Net neutrality
India was able to avoid this due to many people being aware of the concept of net neutrality..

#tollgate would be a good competitor to get up and running for this.
nostr:npub1s07s0h5mwcenfnyagme8shp9trnv964lulgvdmppgenuhtk9p4rsueuk63 it costs facebook almost nothing to have traffic within its own networking infrastructure. They only need to start paying once they send traffic through a gateway, because they are using someone else's infrastructure at that point. #TollGate enables anyone with access to a gateway to undercut facebook's data plans.
I do find it alarming. I was in Costa Rica last month and every billboard and advertisement locals would have their Whatsapp number as contact info
No counter party risk there… nope
CR is 100% captured in that regard. I closed my fb over 10 years ago. Move to CR only to find merchants don't have web pages. All just FB. All communication is whatsapp
Damn if AOL could see what they missed out on…
It's L. Bob Rife's the Raft #snowcrash
Its like the new-age AOL lol
Yep. Terrible.
FBK is officially a desolate wasteland that will only make you less informed and mentally unwell
social media is centralized
social media is broken
the original social media networks aimed to empower users by providing a platform free from GOVT surveillance
but it has been manipulated to serve government interests
jeopardizing their core principles of privacy and autonomy
social media was co-opted for military and intelligence operations, allowing for increased surveillance capabilities rather than protecting people's data
this shift transformed the platform from a tool for social connection into an instrument of control
and that was lack of character/leadership by the founders/owners/leaders of social media
( something that won't happen if i reign)
they couldn't stand up against GOVT surveillance, FBI, CIA, NSA and all GOVTs/Intel from all over the world
what BIG-TECH did raises ethical concerns about complicity in state-sponsored actions
look at twitter: the original vision was rooted in activism and social good
but it ended up being hacked and raised ethical concerns about complicity in state-sponsored actions
we’re losing citizens and we’re subjects
GOVTs and CORPs are manipulating us
there's no reward for truth or reward for discovery, or reward for a better idea or reward for advancing civilization or strengthening democracy or protecting kids.
the reward system is for extreme behavior and that includes lying and making stuff up and, and this is wrong.

Fuck I clicked thru that all. Cover
so is X
Even their endless ads are shitty.
I’m happy to be part of the 6%
Most social media platforms never really focused on making their apps work on low-bandwidth connections like Facebook did, which is a huge deal for a lot of people in developing countries. Americans are just the loudest online, so it feels like we’re the main users, but a big chunk of Facebook’s audience comes from places where facebook is the only option .
And if this user count includes WhatsApp, it totally makes sense WhatsApp is still the essential #1 messaging app in Europe and tons of other countries.
That's gotta include anyone that loads a website with their logo/cookies on it.
96% of them are bots
Mexico's TelCel cell phone service gives unlimited data through Facebook/WhatsApp apps, and charges a crap ton through all other apps.
