Meta has revealed that for the first time, Facebook has more than 3 billion users – more than half of the global population that has the ability to access it.
Meta is a massive company, so massive numbers will come as little surprise to those who follow its fortunes.
Recommended Videos Yes, you read that right — 3.08 billion, which marks an increase of 3% on a year ago. With 7.9 billion people on the planet, that’s 38.4% of the global population checking their Facebook account at least once a month. Not bad for an enterprise that started in a dorm room 19 years ago.
The social networking behemoth reached 1 billion monthly active users in 2012 before crossing the 2 billion mark in 2017. Six years on, it now has more than 3 billion accounts on its servers.
