>15 years ago every party and community meeting was a facebook event.
It's still like this in Europe. Comedians, bands, bars, cafes, basically any kind of venue and enternatiner, organize and announce their events mainly on Facebook. There isn't another alternative that's as seamless and all encompassing as Facebook for this.
With one facebook account I can follow all the bands, bars and cafes in my city without them having to build their own website(they don't even bother) and me having to subscribe with an account to each of them separately.
Also, the marketplace is great for selling old crap and for finding plumbers, electricians and various handymen as Facebooks is their main free advertising avenue.
SO IMHO, it's far from dead, its just not the cool new thing anymore that gets you hooked, like TikTok, but unlike TikTok it's actually more valuable.
