> Meta did not exist (and no other similar company filled the same niche), the world would be better by most measurements.

Why would a company filling a similar niche be better for the world? I'm not asking for proof, just for reasoning beyond wishful thinking.




I think you misread my comment. What I meant is that I'm not only assuming Meta does not exist, but also assuming that no other company that fills the same niche exists. If there's another company which is essentially the same, just with another name and minor differences, it doesn't change much.
