Coding was not the main application before ~Dec 2023, the same way the light bulb was not the main use of electricity for a long time. Meta for better or for worst is good at discovering new use-cases for their products(however bad they are for society is a different debate) and pivot if they are not - remember the Portal device( https://www.meta.com/portal/ ) ? Good hardware, decent usecase, killed within a ~year of its release.
Dude… meta is a fucking mess lol
Internally especially
The AR/VR fiasco
Then the meta glasses dude.. everyone thinks that’s creepy.
Then the social media thing is creepy as hell too
Meta is so far from cool it’s baaad
However, meta has a monopoly on a profitable business model, ads!
