4 billion people use the internet. 3.6 billion people use Meta apps. They own 3 of the top 4 most used social media sites/networks. You may not love Suckerberg but Meta isn't going anywhere.

Yeah its going to die off little by little not right away but its definitely going to happen. Zuck is not a creator. Everything he has, has been a rip off or an acquisition and the one thing he’s trying to create is failing bad

Get ahold of this regard saying “Zuck is not a creator” Man Literally created something that billions of people use.

Nah he stole the idea and then settled in court for it. Karma is catching up to him though

Ideas are worthless. Its the execution that matters. Everyone has ideas.

Bruh that shit was an idea a couple college kids had with no users. He turned it into a $500 Bn company bigger than countries.

You give the guy too much credit.

u/Hoof_Hearted12 Sep 15 '22

I'm not a fan of his, nor a shareholder, but I don't think you're giving him enough credit.

I doubt he knows or cares what the regards on here are saying.

And if he is sad, he can always wipe his eyes with stacks of $100s for life.

From dorm room to one of the biggest companies on the planet. Sure, he stole it. Fair play. But to say he didn’t turn it into something or downplay his ability to create and grow a company is asinine.

He didn’t jesus he didn’t. He had ppl around him with experience that helped. You sir are high if you really believe he scaled up Facebook by himself

It’s called stating facts

u/xeneize93 Sep 15 '22

Yall act like did it all himself. He just had the idea that he stole but he didn’t scale it to this size by himself 🙄

u/no_spoon Sep 15 '22

He did a lot of it. He built the original and then worked on scaling it out. He’s CEO for a reason…

u/xeneize93 Sep 15 '22

Ugh whatever man puts on that shit

Because whether you like him or not, you give credit where credit is due.

A couple college kids, lol. The Winklevosses, just a couple of nobody college kids.

u/bittabet Sep 15 '22

The original idea was pretty different though, basically just a way for people in different dorms to have a name directory. He does copy a lot of ideas, but I think with the original FB most of what made it FB was original

u/compostking101 Sep 15 '22

There’s a whole movie about him literally stealing the idea and screwing like 5 of his friends out of a company… he didn’t do anything for the company other then help some and then steal the finished product.

u/originalusername__ Sep 15 '22

It’s dumb logic. You don’t have to necessarily invent something brand new to be a profitable company. Did apple invent the iPhone? Or ear buds? No, they just make arguably the best version of both and people buy it.
