Facebook's new name has set the meme factory in motion

Facebook's new name also sparked the imagination of digital folk artists, and soon after the announcement, the first funny memes appeared.

Facebook recently got a new name: from now on, the Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Oculus service provider will continue to operate under the name Meta, which not only has a new name, but also a new logo and domain was also given. According to the official position, the name change was made because the company became uncomfortable with the name Facebook, as it became not only the operator of Facebook, but also of a number of other products. The name change is also said to have been prompted by the company's desire to place greater emphasis on metaverzum his new project.

Facebook has had to deal with a series of scandals in recent weeks, so it is possible that the company is trying to cover up the current problems by changing its name. Earlier, a former employee of the company, Frances Haugen, leaked some very serious internal documents which revealed that Facebook was aware of the harmful effects of Instagram on young people under its umbrella. And a few days ago, another leak Documents have been published, proving that Facebook does not act against far-right platforms when spreading fake news because it fears a public attack.

Either way, the name change is a smart move on Zuckerberg's part in more ways than one, and as you might expect, the new name immediately set the meme production. Here are some of the best ideas.
