What products has Meta developed internally after Facebook that have been a success? I am actually asking this question, it seems like they have only had success purchasing already ramping products, plowing cash into them, and cross-integrating them into their product set. Why wouldn't they just continue to lean into that profile and wait for people with actual good ideas solve this.

Why anyone would pay money for meta to collect their entire life of data is beyond me.

Instagram and Facebook and WhatsApp are already free.

They acquired Limitless AI in 2025 which had pivoted from “record and rewind anything on your Mac” to a hardware pendant “granola for everything” product. It was not in market for very long prior to the acquisition.

Hardware was very nice & sorry to see they sold. Mine sits in my desk now :/

Just like the Meta glasses sent your video feeds to Kenya [1] this one will send the soul of your firstborn there

It should be within your rights to apply violence if someone records you with Meta glasses or with this pendant without your consent.
