He's eager for anything to help him gain more wealth, because he doesn't have enough yet and enough is never enough.
Eager or desperate? They rebranded their entire company around a clusterfuck vr second life. Are they actually producing enough to stay relevant?
Facebook has been trending downhill for a long time. Threads I barely hear about. I don't hear as much about Oculus as I used to.
Facebook and shit don't matter much, but whatsapp is the primary form of communication for a good chunk of the world.
Fun fact: in some places, whatsapp and Facebook (and a few other sites) isn't even considered to be "internet". Like, if you don't pay an ISP you still get access to those. Then paying for "internet" gives you access to everything else.
Advertising is still the vast majority of their revenue, and as far as I can tell with a few quick Google searches a significant portion of that still comes from Facebook.
I'd be keenly interested in seeing actual numbers if you can locate them, because they don't appear easy to come by, but I seriously a doubt your assertion that their core product's add revenue doesn't matter to their bottom line.
AI slop is costing him more money than his android brain likes to admit.
