In a brief YouTube Shorts segment, the speaker highlights a potential decline in Facebook usage in the United States and Canada during Q3 2020. He notes that daily active users fell from 198 million to 196 million and monthly active users from 256 million to 255 million. The speaker attributes the recent slowdown to the pandemic‑driven growth boost beginning to level off and raises the question of whether competing platforms are drawing users away.

Are users abandoning Facebook? You'll want to see this data. While Facebook had a profitable Q3, they showed signs of trouble in the US and Canada. Daily active users dropped from 198 million to 196 million, and monthly active users dropped from 256 million to 255 million. So what's happening? Facebook claims that the pandemic gave them a massive boost, and that's just starting to level off. However, I wonder if another competing platform could be playing a role. What do you think?
