Tl,dr: Musk is irratic and has no plan, per a journalist who has covered him for five years.

      I’ve been on facebook since it was still limited by domain names and it was a big deal when my campus was finally added to the list of approved email domains. I’ve watched it’s evolution over the years. Facebook is a shell of a website these days - almost nobody uses it compared to what it was ten years ago. I use it to keep in touch with some older family members and old friends, but for the most part nobody uses it or posts often. It’s all junk from different FB groups and an excessive amount of ads.

      Facebook still works for what it was great at, originally: Communicating in relatively small groups. There was one meeting-niche competitor, meetup, but they decided they only want conferences and stuff. For everything else, all others either don’t support groups, or lack network effects. The feed, sadly, is completely unusable nowadays.
