minus-squaresolsangraal@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoi think the shift to “meta” was their response to the realization that only boomers use facebook anymore. but what does meta provide that gen z wants? oculus stuff? threads? LOL once something bubbles up to replace instagram (which it will), they’re done
minus-squareJustAnotherKay@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoI would agree if they weren’t such a prolific backbone for the tech industry. They’re not just gonna vanish when people stop using their apps because businesses will still pump cash into them
minus-squaresolsangraal@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 months ago such a prolific backbone for the tech industry i’m not familiar with this. what businesses require meta for their existence?
minus-squaredan@upvote.aulinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-22 months agoFor what it’s worth, a bunch of open source stuff is maintained by Meta, that businesses rely on: Parts of the Linux kernel, including btrfs, cgroup2 (which is heavily used by Docker and similar technologies), psi, bpf, and a few others. PyTorch, used for AI/ML stuff PrestoDB zstd compression library and xxhash hashing library - used by pretty much every database system and a large number of backup systems now React, React Native, Relay, etc. Plus all the AI research and models (like Llama) that’s published publicly with generous licensing policies. Way more Open than “OpenAI”.
Shame meta won’t go with it
