the moat that facebook have with their sheer number of users is their #1 feature. IMHO, this is why certain social networks exist for parts of what facebook offers but none quite encompass the entire breadth.
Just as an example, i have a facebook account with bogus info but i've had it for nearly fifteen years now. Over time, i've used it for chatting with friends, reconnecting with lost ones, buying and selling locally, finding events and even as a local rideshare.
No single platform can do all of this and despite the horrible things facebook does and enables, there is real value in their service.
